One of our Windows 7 is located in our SAN VLAN and doesn't need to access The internet so that it doesn't setup default gateway. I have enabled remote desktop, but can't access it from other computer in the same subnet using RDP. I found the firewall disabled remote desktop on Public location (note: remote desktop is enabled in the private network). I must enable the remote desktop in the public location to be able to access it remotely. My question are: 1. Why the LAN display 'Unidentified Network'?
It is because it doesn't have default gateway? Do you know a way to change the 'Unidentified Network' network location from the Public to Private? It doesn't give you the option to make the change when it is 'Unidentified Network'. Thank you.Bob Lin, MS-MVPNetworking, Internet, Routing, VPN Troubleshooting onHow to Setup Windows, Network, VPN & Remote Access on. You can't change the unidentified network to private because that is prevented by a default security setting. You can change the security setting so that the network is not made public in the first place. Here is what you need to do from a previous discussion on this.
To do this on your local server, follow these steps:1. Start - run - MMC - press enter2. In MMC console, from menu file select Add/Remove Snap-in3. Select Group Policy Object editor - Press Add - select Local computer - press OK -press OK4. Open Computer configration -Windows Settings -Security Settings -select Network list manager policies on the right Side you will see options for:double click -Unidentified networksThen you can select the option to consider the Unidentified networks as private and if user can change the location.I hope that is will help you and is clear.- Hikmat Kanaan Amman-Jordan MCSEBill.

I had networking problems as well. 3 computers running Windows 7. 2 had Adobe CS3 installed which brings with is a piece of software called Bonjour. These two computers had no end of networking problems.
1 was a desktop connected to the router and the other was a laptop connecting via WiFi. Third computer didn't have CS3 and didn't have any trouble at all.
In trying to find a solution (nothing seemed to work), I came across the solution shown below in a different thread and thought I would share it. I installed the upgrade for Bonjour (it's listed as Windows Vista 64 software) and all of my network problems cleared up. My thanks to 'PDX Prod Mgr'. I had the same problem when I rebuilt my Windows 7 system. I had CS3 installed on my system, it installs an old version of bonjour. If you inspect your program filesbonjour directory, see if you have an EXE and DLL file dated 2006. Jump over to apple's website and search for windows bonjour.
I found the newer download here: Download and install this (you don't have to uninstall the old Bonjour) and reboot. This fixed my install and I no longer have the network error you describe. If you look at that folder now, you will have the newer DLLs (and some other gunk.)'. We are having the same (similar) problem. Windows7 changes our very very small Ethernet LAN network (2 Windows7 pcs and 1 XPsp3 pc and 1 high-speed printer) from a named workgroup to unidentified public when I connect one of the windows7 pc's to asmartphone.This results in the printer sharing on the Etherlan LAN being disabled.I tried the solution above: Group Policy Object editor does not appear on the list when I select Add/Remove Snap-in.
I have Windows7 Home Premium (64)?? Any other approach??I need a quick/easy way to set the LAN configuration back, because this happens EVERY time.Or a way to prevent Windows7 from clobbering the configuration/identification of the named workgroup LAN.Thanks.PS Is this different enough - should I start a new thread? Thanks again.abideth all three.

Developer: GameHi. Sudden attack 2 download. Publisher: Nexon (South Korea). Business Model: Free to Play. Status: Pre-Release.
Open Computer configration -Windows Settings -Security Settings -select Network list manager policieson the right Side you will see options for:double click -Unidentified networksThen you can select the option to consider the Unidentified networks as private and if user can change thelocation.For those that have not got elsewhere in their internet searches, it well-documented that this method is extremely unsafe. It means that next time you connect to a new network, it will immediately label the unidentified network as Private and will allowmore exposure to your PC per the standard Private settings. It's flippen annoying is all it is! The damn server does not move around to different networks yet MS decides to label a network connection that was working perfectly to public and suddenly block all damn access.
The same thing goes for whenI move from one client site to the next with my laptop. I am quite capable of managing the firewall settings myself and DO NOT need MS to decide when the damn network is safe or not! Especially when NOTHING has been changed on a server network. THEN we allseem to be looking for 'backdoors' to disable this extremely annoying 'safety precaution' just get the damn connections working again which is damn unsafe! This powershell solution worked for me. I am using a windows 10 Home edition laptop for some minor development projects.
Most of the other 'Solutions' I have found seem to require domain membership, server tools, or Windows pro, not home. Powershellseem to work well for home. For one application I am developing, I need it to reference a server by name, not IP. To make it work on my laptop offline, I added a loopback adapter, then added the appropriate entry to the hosts file. The fact that the loopbackadapter's network was unidentifed and public, however, made it all not work.To fix, I used the suggested solution above in Powershell.
To make it slightly better, I encapsulated that in a batch file that I can execute as needed when testing this application:Powershell.exe -command'set-netconnectionprofile -InterfaceAlias MyLoopbackAdapterName -NetworkCategory Private'When not testing my application, I can undo it if I want it with:Powershell.exe -command 'set-netconnectionprofile -InterfaceAlias MyLoopbackAdapterName -NetworkCategory Public'If you are not sure what the adapter alias is, in powershell, you can display all of them with:get-netconnectionprofile -InterfaceAlias.
Windows Network and Sharing Center is pretty well structured and quite easy to use, some users still might have some trouble in accommodating to it. Is it possible to get a direct shortcut to network traffic and speed like in the old days? Going down through all these convoluted steps to get to the status window (which should be directly accessible in the tray in place of the tons of useless ones) is a major usability rollback (among many others in Vista to all who have used this OS for any length of time have undoubtedly found out).Any idea what is the actual name of the status window application? Once known it could as simple as getting a shortcut or tray icon for direct access.Or did Microsoft once again purposefully remove a useful feature with an extra layer of obscurity in the name of sacro sanct 'convenience' or 'security'?I don't know about you guys, but I'm sick and tired of constantly having to fight Microsoft to get back control of MY computer!!!
