Network Status column has a "2" after my domain name

Question

_{Sunday, January 27, 2013 6:09 PM}

All my other servers do not have this "2" after my domain name in the network status. I have searched and cannot find any documentation on what this means and why it is there. Can anyone tell me why there is a "2" there and/or how to get rid of it?

Fixed.

Here is the registry key where the connection profiles are stored. It seems I had a duplicate for some reason. Deleted the original profile and renamed the current one to remove the "2"

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\NetworkList\Profiles\

I deleted all entries as in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\NetworkList\Profiles\ 

The reason, for some reason profiles that were deleted kept auto generating, deleting all entries fixed this. 

I have only one network adapter installed.
