Windows Forum / Windows XP / Networking and Web / April 2007DSL on, but Local Area Connection says limited or no connectivity.
Why is it that my DSL connection appears to be intact and I can access the internet but my Local Area Connection indicates that there is limited or no connectivity? I guess that since I am connected and typing this message now there really is no issue, but it seems to be a bit of a contradiction and I am concerned that there may be something wrong that might cause me problems later. Any thoughts? Should I not even worry about this? Cheers.  SignatureD You may want to disable the message. This troubleshooting may help.

Any thoughts? Should I not even worry about this? Cheers. Is there a Broadband or PPPoE connection in the Network Connections folder? If so, your DSL modem uses that, not the Local Area Connection, to communicate with your computer. In that case, the Local Area Connection doesn't get an IP address, which causes the extraneous "limited or no connectivity" message. The solution is to assign a static private IP address, such as 10.0.0.1 or 192.168.0.1, to the Local Area Connection.
