Hi
look at the Control panel/Network Connections.
If the adapter with VON None home connection appears there right click on it
and choose Disable.
Another rig click and choosing Enable will re-enable it if needed in another
time.

Hello Jack,

Thanks for looking into the problem. I looked at the Control Panel/Network
Connections but there is no adapter with your description. Maybe, I don't
understand what you mean by an adapter.
