    1.    Use Registry Editor (Regedt32.exe) to view the following key in the registry:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip\Parameters
    Add the following registry value:
    Value Name: DisableDHCPMediaSense
    Data Type: REG_DWORD -Boolean
    Value Data Range: 0, 1 (False, True) Default: 0 (False)
    Description: This parameter controls DHCP Media Sense behavior. If you set this value data to   1, DHCP, and even non-DHCP, clients ignore Media Sense events from the interface. By default, Media Sense events trigger the DHCP client to take an action, such as attempting to obtain a lease (when a connect event occurs), or invalidating the interface and routes (when a disconnect event occurs).
    2.    Restart your computer.
