Hello everyone,
First, the context of the incident:
I optimized my XP to run with the minimum services. So far, so good. But yesterday, I needed to use my business VPN connection (Cisco client). The VPN connects, but I can't access the DFS root. I must be missing some services. I enable the ones that seem relevant, still nothing. In desperation, I enable everything. No problem, since I have a script that manages the optimization afterwards.
And then, surprise. Not only does it not work, but on top of that, I find myself with something I've never had: something that looks like a network card and is called "internet gateway."
Well, since the result is negative, I decide to start by disabling that thing. CLICK! My LB reboots. I think it must be normal... It completes its sequence and... CLICK! It's back on. The LB keeps rebooting in a loop... I'm in trouble...
I disconnect the PC. The LB does one last reboot and "stabilizes," except that... Nothing comes up, neither Internet, nor phone, nothing, nada, zilch!
I'm hesitating to do a factory reset; I think the problem doesn't come from there.
It's an LB 2 on a 100 Meg fiber connection.
2 questions:
- Has anyone ever had this problem?
- In your opinion, what could it be caused by, because I'm out of ideas...
Thanks in advance for your suggestions, and have a great day everyone!

Configuration: So pitiful that it's not worth mentioning.
