we need a ton more information

1-did you create a external virtual switch?

2-what happens when you run the troubleshooter from within the vm?

3-Have you tried re-booting the computer, restarting the hyper-v manager, and restarting the VM?

4-On the host machine are the physical devices bridged?

There is some evidence that this works.

What I did was after creating the External Virtual Switch, I assigned a Static (NAT) IP to the vEthernet Adapter.  This time I noticed that my Internet access to my host machine was restored.  So the first thing that caused the problem was that DHCP did not work on the vEthernet adapter and a static (NAT) IP restored Internet connectivity.  The original WiFi adapter appeared as Bridged, so I had no way to configure that adapter as long as the bridge was in place.  The only place where I could put in a static IP was on the vEthernet adapter that was created by the External Virtual Switch.  Then I started the Virtual Machine and noticed that it didn't have Internet access.  So I created a Legacy Network Adapter, that was suggested by another article (although in that article it suggested creating an Internal Virtual Switch, rather than the external one that ZigZag suggested.)  After I created the Legacy Network adapter on the virtual machine and bound it to the External Virtual Switch, I got Internet access on my virtual machine.  So the steps that I followed were:

1. Create an External Virtual Switch and bind it to the host machine's Wireless Network Adapter

2. Assign a static (NAT) IP to the vEthernet adapter on the host computer (in the Network and Sharing Center)

3. Create a Legacy Network adapter within the specific Virtual Machine and bind it to the External Virtual Switch.

Now I can create more virtual machines for testing and development on Hyper-V technology.  Excellent!

Thank you Sherry and ZigZag.

Thanks i have few doubts 1. Create an External Virtual Switch and bind it to the host machine's Wireless Network Adapter--meaning i need to select Wireless Network adapter? 2. Assign a static (NAT) IP to the vEthernet adapter on the host computer (in the Network and Sharing Center only static IP is sufficient what about DNS, gateway etc 3. Create a Legacy Network adapter within the specific Virtual Machine and bind it to the External Virtual Switch.

i am sure i can have screenshot please for all step if possible?

I am unsure of your exact setup.  I can  only say that the mentioned user had success resolving aa hyper-v issue like your by doing the above.  I would give you a link to the thread but it is on a MS site that is private.

Hi,

We hope you already found the guidance for how to share internet on Hyper-V, if you are still looking for that.
