I'm testing out different Hypervisors in my home lab, and currently I only have wifi available. I've managed to get the drivers installed for my wireless card, but I can't seem to connect to a network now.

I know you can usually use netsh wlan ... but this seems to be stripped from the Hyper-V Server installation.

Any suggestions? Please keep in mind, this is Hyper-V Server 2012, not Windows Server 2012 with a Hyper-V role.

  1. Check your wifi connection with ipconfig /all, check for DNS servers and take note.
  2. Edit your Wifi adapter and set a static IP and enter DNS values from step 1 for allways have internet connnection
  3. Now you can créate a Virtual Switch (External) with your WiFi Adapter
  4. Create you VM with Hyper-V, assign the external switch and check, you have internet in your machine (host) and the VM.

    Thanks for your feedback, but you've driven past the same issue that most other articles do. "Edit your Wifi adapter". This is an easy task when you have a GUI, or the wlan features of netsh. When you're using Hyper-V Server, you don't have these options. – Origin Oct 28 '14 at 21:09
