  1. Hyper-V Switch Impacting Internet Even When VM Is Not Running


    I'm running VMs for class on Windows 10 Pro using Hyper-V.


    While the VM is running it doesn't matter whether I can browse the internet on the regular machine as long as the VM can do it.


    However, when I turn the VM off entirely and shut down Hyper-V, my wifi continues to be impacted by the switch. The other day it shut down my wireless adapter entirely saying that the virtual switch was not configured correctly. I opened Hyper-V and deleted the switch and now the computer works fine.


    I still need the switch though, for any further labs I have for class.


    My questions are:

    1. Why does the virtual switch continue to run when the VM and Hyper-V are both closed?


    2. Do I need to make a virtual switch every time I run a VM and then delete it afterward so it has no impact on my personal wifi?


    3. If I were to make a separate local account on my computer, will the virtual switch on that account affect the wifi adapter on all of my local accounts?

    :)

    No Internet in Hyper-V VM's

    Hi, I have Windows 10 Enterprise and just added Hyper-V. I had 3 VM's on VMware Player and deleted and uninstalled Player. I have 3 Vm's on Hyper-V. My problem is I get no Internet on my Vm's. I am new to Hyper-V and would like to know how to connect these
    to the internet. I have "Virtual switch (automatic)" selected. They show no connections available in the VM's. How do I connect to the internet? (I'm on wifi.) I'm attaching a screenshot. Thanks

    No Internet in Hyper-V VM's

    Hi, thanks for the reply. I got internet working. I had to create a wifi connection in "Virtual Switch Manager" and then go to the settings for each of my 2 VM's and tell it to use the wifi connection I created. Along the way I had to tell it to "share"
    connection with the Host. One of the VM's has a problem connecting and disconnecting but I will work on that and figure it out. If anyone has this problem try searching the internet and youtube has good videos explaining how to setup Internet in Hyper-V Manager.
