I've created a Linux-based Hyper-V VM, and I'm connecting it to an external virtual switch on my hosts's wifi adapter, but it's not finding an internet connection.
This is what I do:
Open Hyper-V
Virtual Switch Manager
Create an External Virtual Switch
Rename it "External Switch"
Select my WIRELESS adapter
Allow management operating system to share this network adapter
Enable (have tried both disabled and enabled) VLAN Ident.
Hit Okay
Select VM (Elementary OS (would any other distro give me different results?) or Pear OS atm)
Right click > Settings
Change Network Adapter to newly created Switch
Enable VLAN (if not already enabled)
Hit Okay
Start VM
Check connections
Only thing that shows is Wired Connection 1.
No internet connection
Close VM
Delete the switch and close Hyper-V with frustration written over face.
What am I doing wrong? Or what can I do to get a connection?
