    Hi;
    My Laptop having windows10. When i run the command "ipconfig", system shows me 02nos IPv4 as you can see in attached screen shot. Originally i have set 192.168.1.150 at Ethernet IPv4 configuration. But i could not understand that from where that second IPv4 169.254.173.57 is coming. I need to disable this second IPv4. I have a software "Fatek Ethernet Adpater Configuraton" by which we can detect the set IP of Fatek brand Ethernet modules. When I run that software, it fails to detect the connected module because it says that MY IP is 169.254.173.57 while it must be within the range of Fatek Ethernet Module.

    So i need to disable that IP169.254.173.57 so that system talk to Fatek Ethernet module via original IP 192.168.1.150. Please help.

    I have tried to turn off the WIFI but hence that second IP doesnt disappear. If I disconnect Ethernet cable and only WIFI is ON, then both IPv4 dont appear?
