    sorry if this is a daft question. set up 4.2.40 all's fine no problems, i just put pc to sleep instead of shut down. when it woke i got the 'allow sharing/ strict protection' window?
    i now have 2 home networks, and wondered why this was?
    thanks.

    what are the 2 different subnets? silly question, but does it keep adding new networks/subnets every time you bring the machine out of sleep? Did you place your network in Trusted zone?

    i've seen similar with another fw. Is 192.x.x.x wireless connection? if yes it could that because it takes a moment or 2 for it to reassert itself after sleep that Eset detects your local area (ethernet connection) first (169.x.x.x being default with no valid ip). I would leave as is (although you can delete but it might prompt you to create every time it wakes)

    no, it's just hard ethernet wired 192...is when it wakes from off and 196... is when it wakes from sleep strange. thanks for replies i will as you say leave it alone.

    169.254.x.x is APIPA (IP assign automatically by Windows) - most likely meaning you didn't get a proper IP from your DHCP server. Which might mean that your NIC and hibernation don't get quite along.

    ah! thanks. you are quite right. my power and bios settings are wrong for sleep (it's sort of afternoon nap mode), i was just messing i usually shut it down. thanks for pointing that out.

    hmm looks like you cannot delete it.

    You mean in ESS? Well, cannot test ATM, but first of all it'd be better to fix the real cause for this. Also, still seems like some bug in ESS b/c clearly the state shown is impossible - you can't have that IP in that subnet.

    sounds about right. i tried it with outpost and dr web (just out of beta) and cant replicate it.
    nothing wrong with pc set up. funny thing is i cant get eset to replicate it either!
