Internet Gateway connection and icon intermitently appears then disappears from the Network Connections folder
An Internet Gateway connection and an icon appears in my Network Connection intermitently. Also, two icons resembling tv's appear in the notification bar. The Internet Gateway connection appears usually after rebooting or sometimes will appear when I start up the pc for the first time in any given day. Right now it's not there, but will later return on a later reboot. Why does it appear and disappears. My Internet connection is still good. I have broadband and connect to the moden via 4 ports linksys wireless router Could anyone suggest an answer or comment. Thank you.
