Short Description:
Fixed Hyper‑V VM connectivity by creating an external virtual switch.
I was experiencing a loss of Internet connectivity in a Windows virtual machine running on Hyper‑V. Although the VM received an IP address via the Default Switch, it could not reach the Internet—the gateway (172.29.128.1), external IP addresses (e.g., 8.8.8.8), or HTTPS endpoints were unreachable.
