Problems RElated to Wireless Connected
If you go to the "Network Connections" page within the Network and Sharing Center, or the Control Panel, it will list off all of your network adapters (ie your ethernet adapter, wifi, bluetooth, etc.). The "Wireless Network Connection 2" is probably the Microsoft Virtual WAN miniport Adapter. I have no idea what it's exact function is, but it's harmless. It's not connecting to anything because it's not your physical wifi card. The "Wireless Network Connection" is your physical wifi card. It's best just to ignore the "Wireless Network Connection 2"
The Quick way to get to "Network Connections"
1. Hold the Windows Key on your keyboard
2. Tap the "R" key
3. Release the Windows Key
4. A "Run" Window Opened
5. In the "Run" Window, Type "ncpa.cpl" and then click "OK"
6. Network Connections is Open
Local Area Connection = Ethernet
Bluetooth = Bluetooth
Wireless Network Connection = Your Wifi Card
Wireless Network Connection 2 = Microsoft Virtual thing that probably matters but can be left alone.
