Hello,

You are at the right place but with wrong question.

Try posting this question in some of network newsgroups, I recommend this
because you may have better luck with this problem.

Or try to give us more info.

When you say unable to do this, what exactly that means? You can't access
properties dialog, or you can't change values?

Are you sure that when you change value, and restart computer you have new
value?

i can't even access the properties dialog without a network cable plugged
in.

value?

Then you are in the right place.
i can't even access the properties dialog without a network cable plugged
in.

I can't browse my computer, but not to be able to access properties dialog.
This is new to me.
yes ,it works after restart..

I didn't know that you are building XPE.


Sorry, I couldn't help you.

Try this from knowledge base article 239924:

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).
