[edit: Mods, can you move this to Computer Help?]
This is the weirdest damn problem I have witnessed on my computer.
During boot, I have no display on my monitor. When windows is loading the Login screen, the display will appear on the monitor.
Also, after a boot/reboot, nothing can access the internet.
[A note on that: my PC connects to a router/switch, static configured for no DHCP and to act like a bridge for the router that is on the other end of a powerline network, which is then wired to the internet. So my PC, to reach the internet, communicates through two routers/swiches. I cannot tick one button to enable Bridge mode for the second router, but I have it configured to act like one, and the Routing Map looks great. Latency times confirm ideal connections between devices on the various switches, so I know all that is actually configured properly.]
...
Windows (Win7, btw) states I am connected to two networks after boot. After I disable and then enable the network adapter in the control panel, everything goes fine.
During this whole process, I am pulling my proper IP and subnet, and can communicate completely with both routers (through ping and through the browser config sites).
These two problems showed up at the same time, btw. Display is powered by an nvidia GPU (physical card), and ethernet is onboard.
