Your poor old Laptop can get confused if confronted by multiple network connections.

These days lots of people have both Wired and Wireless access in their offices.

It would best not to have both connected at the same time.

Tip: The first network interface to connect is the one given preference.

Tip: If your laptop has a physical WiFi switcher (pictured above) use that to turn off and then turn on when needed.

Tip: If your laptop does not have a physical switch you may have a keyboard shortcut to turn it off and on.

Tip: Failing that locate the Wireless Network Connection in your Network Properties and choose disable, then enable when you want it back on again.
