It seems that if you try and use the CISCO An圜onnect VPN software to initiate a remote tunnel after enabling the sharing of Internet access via your wireless card it will fail. As I am not using a windows guest I do not know if this is guaranteed.Īlternatively, you can run a DHCP service on your host laptop, perhaps even a virtualised instance of OPNsense CISCO An圜onnect VPN error If running Windows as a guest VM then you may get away with using APIPA (Automatic Private IP Addressing) having the guest use a 169.254… address which may allow the shared Internet connection to function.

This will then piggyback on the shared Internet connection of the Wireless adapter. Inside your guest VM set a static IP as per your OS within the range of the Virtual Switch IP, making the default gateway that of the Virtual Switch. Assign the Internal Virtual Switch in the networking portion of the guest VM in Hyper-Vĥ. There should be a Sharing tab (if you view the properties from the Network and Sharing Centre the sharing tab is not shown!)Ĭheck both boxes and select the appropriate Hyper-V Virtual Switch from the drop down Sharing option of the WiFi adapter propertiesĤ. From the Network Connections page (adapter settings) open the properties of the Wireless adapter. Note down the IP address (I changed mine from the default) Private IP address of the Internal Virtual Switchģ. Go to the Network and Sharing Centre, view the status of the Internal Switch, then its Properties, then the Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4) properties. Create an Internal Virtual Switch in the normal way via the Virtual Switch Manager.Ģ. The workaroundĬreate an Internal Virtual Switch, then share the Wireless adapters Internet connection with it.ġ. The usual answers of driver updates, software version updates help some but for those of us trying this from a wireless network adapter there seems no solid fix.

There is much speculation online going back to 2016 around errors with Hyper-V virtual switches as to what the problem is. The operation failed because the object was not found.įurther attempts to create a External Virtual Switch yield the error 0x800700B7 External Hyper-V Virtual Switch error However, when setting up the networking, specifically, an external virtual switch I was getting the following errors: Error applying Virtual Switch Properties changes Needing some VMs locally on my laptop I added the Hyper-V package to Windows and set about getting things configured. Having Windows 10 Pro gives access to Hyper-V as a virtualisation platform.
