What does the message mean that says the Local Area Connection has “limited or no connectivity”?
Microsoft has a long, technical explanation at the link below, but in most cases this message is caused by a bug in Windows XP SP2, but may not appear until you connect your computer to a DSL or Wireless Internet connection. The message itself is harmless and should not affect your Internet connection. If you want to disable the message: 1. Click Start, click Run, type ncpa.cpl, and then click OK. 2. Double-click Local Area Connection, and then click Properties. 3. On the General tab, click to clear the Notify me when this connection has limited or no connectivity check box, click OK, and then click Close. Note: This does not resolve an issue. It just turns the message off. If you are having a problem with your connection and see this message, be sure to check other problems with the connection first before going to Microsoft’s website and attempting to implement their solution. 1. Be sure your cables are connected to your computer’s Ethernet card and your router, DSL modem or Wireless
