System check failed

I recently ran a health check for my computer and received two failed systems
messages.
Modems and Network Adapter:

Network Adapter:
[00000001] Realtek RTL8139/810x Family Fast Ethernet NIC (FAILED)
IPAddress = 192.xxx.xx (FAILED) (I purposely left out the IP address, wasn't
sure if it like showing your social over the internet)
and
IP Address:
[00000001] Realtek RTL8139/810x Family Fast Ethernet NIC (FAILED)
- IPAddress = 192.xxx.xx (FAILED)

I also noticed that the both IP addresses are different from one another.
(the last two digits specifically).
I hope this helps in resolving my issues of very slow in just about all
aspects. Sometimes, in closing the computer, I have to close twice.
thanks, valerie

"Health Check" primarily verifies important updates have been installed.
Using a wireless connection will result in failed or not connected
network/modem adaptor.

Hi
The 192.168.xx.xx IPs are private LAN IPs. Private IPs can not pass the
Router and travel over the Internet, and the same numbers can be found on
Millions of computers. I.e. there is No security risk in revealing these
numbers.
The last group of numbers in each IP should be unique to each computer
otherwise the network would not work correctly.
If there is specific problem with your Network let us know, other this error
is insignificant.
