32660-untitled-picture.pngHi Team,

How to change the connection type of default switch on Hyper-v?
last time, I opened Hyper-v, all virtual machines could access to physical network and go through Google.com.
But this time, I opened one of my virtual machines, I found that

  1. Network shows that "Internet Access", but I could not visit google or any other websites.
  2. Network shows "domain network"
  3. After I check the switch of Hyper-v, the connection has been changed into "Internal". I could make sure that it was "External" last time.
  4. My PC runs Hyper-v with domain joint and VPN enabled.

How could I make the virtual machines on Hyper-v could access the Internet again?

Thank you

    Hi,

    On virtual machine, there is no Ethernet tab and Internet adaptor. Please check the pics on my last post.

    According to your screenshot, it seems we have added the external Virtual switch to the VM, then please check the adapter like below:
