LAN and modem connection not working

Hi everyone.

It all started when my LAN-connection din't work for some reason and somebody (wrongly) adviced me to remove and reinstall the TCP/IP for my connections. After that I noticed that I have a unit called WAN miniport(IP) #2 under network adapters, and now both my LAN and modem connections dont work. I dont know what it is but I believe that it is the reason for all evil. Anyway, the WAN miniport is not working properly because "its necessary drivers can't be loaded". Also I get a code 31 that says that the WAN miniport is dependent of
another unit that is not working properly either. I have no clue what this other associated unit is. All I know is that when I remove the TCP/IP from my connections, also the WAN miniport is removed, but when the TCP/IP is installed again the WAN miniport appears again.

I wonder if some kind person can/would like to help me. Thanks

Regards

You must have two miniport wan (ip) which is one too much obviously. I really don't know what to do, never heard about this problem. Does removing one of them make things better?
