Under "Change Adapter Settings"
(Start ->> Control Panel ->> View Network Status and Tasks [under Network and Internet] ->> Change Adapter Settings [left side-bar] ),
it is good practice to disable any adapters that are not being used to connect...

i.e. If you wish to connect using wired connection, then disable all but "Local Area Connection".
Or if you wish to connect using wireless connection, then disable all but "Wireless Network Connection".

Shortcut for above: right click the internet connection icon (bottom right of desktop) ->> Change Adapter Settings [left side-bar].
