    The spinning wheel happens on your computer? If so, its probably not piggybacking (turn off homegroup just in case, its not the problem but if your this worried its probably for the best). Its... Well honestly I have no idea, but try booting it in safe mode with networking. If it happens again its the manufacturers error and send it back.
