Try Control Panel -> "Network and Internet Connections" -> "Set up or
change your home office or small office Network"

Try this - In Device Manager open up Network Adapters. Your incorrect (and correct) networks set up should be listed. Right click on the one you want to get rid of and select uninstall. This will remove it from your list of Network Connections.
