Well your system shows that a fake or unidentified network is been found working with internet can be resolved by troubleshooting the system. Follow the steps:

1) Upgrade the router firmware and connect the router via cables again.
2) Now turn off the firewall on your machine for temporary and router.
3) Now upgrade the NIC driver for the card.
4) Start the system under safe mode.

Now with networking check out the result.

You need to click on start menu and in the run command type NCPA.CPL. After it is done hit enter. Now follow this steps:

1) Right click on the network connection and then click to properties.

This fake or unidentified network appears because it may have been enabled by some of the user or been assigned wrongly. You can do one thing in order to stop this thing to happen. When you start your system go to the network connections option form start menu to the control panel. There you would get connections that is been currently working in your system. Highlight the fake network and then disable it by right clicking on it. This shall then make the changes and wont show up again after reboot.

The problem you are facing is due to some issues related to the operating system. This can be resolved by assigning the address again by resetting them in order to get the things work in proper manner. You have to enter the address for the system manually that is the Ip address and the DNS address. The default gateway should be provided also with respect to the configuration of the router. This shall help.

Windows 7 is highly sophisticated system and it needs a good configurational substance in order to make the applications to work well. The network failure or fake network accessibility may be due to the substantial inability of the device to cope up with the operating system. Upgrade the firmware for the system and then save the settings with changes. Check out for the output thereafter.
