Case 4: The client receives this multiple networks message because his laptop was running wried and wireless. Disabling one solves the problem.

Case 5: The client can't connect to the network and the Internet because it's showing as being connected to multiple networks. He can disable the network adapter, enable it and the pc will then only connect to the Home network and no issues with the net. He has tried deleting the network as per other threads and rebooting the pc. This seems to works once then the multiple networks issue reappears.

Resolution: disable Bonjour service. Run services.msc. Scroll down and find a service named "Bonjour service". Double click on this service, then disable it. Then reboot.

Note: Bonjour service is created by Apple that is commonly used in several applications to get your network card to configure itself. Automatically to work with certain services. It does not play well with windows services as a rule, and delaying the auto start gives the windows services time to start prior to its activation at reboot.
