I did 'ipconfig' today and found about 10 network interfaces, most of them disconnected.

How can I diagnose this? Where can I remove them?

Edit:

Where are downloads stored on my ipad. Or just give up the whole idea and hope for the best!

The extra network appear like this:

Tunnel adapter Local Area Connection* 16

Tunnel adapter Local Area Connection* 17

Tunnel adapter Local Area Connection* 18

Warning: It's always a good idea to create system restore point before making any systems changes.

So what is tunnel adapter?

Tunneling is how to do secure communications across an untrusted network such as the internet. If you look at 'description' of each connection, via ipconfig /all, it will probably the contain either ISATAP or 6over4. Find information about Tunnel Adapters at Wikipedia.

These adapters are part of the Microsoft implementation of the iPv6 TCP/IP address protocol. You will find you have quite a lot of them, at least one per each defined network adapter. You also probably have VMware player installed, which adds several network adapters potentially used by virtual machines.

These dummy adapters are called 'Automatic Tunneling Pseudo-Interface' for encapsulating IPv6 packets with an IPv4 header so that they can be sent across an IPv4 network. This probably means that your local network is at the moment both iPv4 and iPv6, and these adapters are created 'just in case'.

If you are working on a local network, you have no need of iPv6, since 4-byte TCP/IP addresses are quite sufficient for the number of computers. To get rid of these dummy adapters do:

  1. Open up Control Panel -> Network and Sharing Center.
  2. For each network connection :
    • Click 'View status', then Properties.
    • Uncheck the mark next to 'Internet protocol version 6 (TCP/IPv6)'.
    • Click OK, then Close.
  3. When all adapters are done, reboot.

This will leave only iPv4 interfaces defined on your computer, and will only work if you do not have any pure-iPv6 device on the local network. If you do have such a device, you will need to allow iPv6 at least on the one network adapter on which it communicates.

From the command line:

If you're running Windows 2012/8 or later, you can do it with powershell:

Caveat - if for some reason you want the tunnel adapters on some, but not all, of your interfaces, this isn't the right solution. Probably that's not what you want though.
