Hyper-V kills internet connection when bridging

I am using Hyper-V for the first time (running Windows 8). When I create a new virtual network switch, external, it bridges the VMs network adapter with the WiFi - and that for some reason kills the WiFi's internet connection. Why, and what could I be doing wrong?

Thanks, A.

  • I had the same problem, it takes a couple of seconds to setup the connection again. Check this tutorial: https://superuser.com/questions/469806/windows-8-hyper-v-how-to-give-vm-internet-access
