My situation:
I am running (evaluating) Windows 8 (RTM) on my Laptop.
I am connected to a LAN which has NO access to the internet (DEV-LAN).
I am running a virtual machine (VMware Workstation) which is connected via Bridge Mode to the DEV-LAN. This virtual machine has no access to the internet.
Before, with Windows 7 I was able to connect the host via UMTS to the internet while the virtual machine still was connected to the DEV-LAN. So I could keep working within the virtual machine while doing research (MSDN, Google, Stackoverflow) in the internet on the host.
When I now connect the Windows 8 host to the mobile broadband, nothing changes in the runtime behaviour. The whole Network communication is still running over DEV-LAN. Windows 8 tells me in the Network Sidebar that mobile broadband is connected, but it does not use it. When I remove the network plug of DEV-LAN, THEN the broadband connection will be used. But then obviously, I cannot work in my virtual machine, which depends on DEV-LAN.
Question:
Is there any switch in windows 8 that I can use to tell the system to use broadband over LAN, when available?
Thanks a lot!

edit for the comment of pst: the following metrics are given
IPv4-Routentabelle
===========================================================================
Aktive Routen:
Netzwerkziel Netzwerkmaske Gateway Schnittstelle Metrik
0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 192.168.23.1 192.168.23.12 25
0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 77.24.97.50 77.24.97.49 296
It finally works :-)
I set the metric of my LAN-Adapter to 999 and everything is as I want it to be.
Any change of the UMTS Adapter to a lower metric was unsuccessful.
Even when I set the metric to 1 or 5 or 10, netstat /rn told me a metric > 50.
So when I cannot lower the one metric, I have to raise the other one ;-)
The metric can be easily changed like follows:
System Settings
Network and Internet
Network Connections
Ethernet -> Context Menu -> Properties
Select Internet Protocol (v4) -> Properties
Advanced
Automatic Metric off and manually set to 999

I have some trouble with my windows server 2019 running Hyper-V, for the background my windows server run on an ESXI infra.
It is impossible for me to get any internet access nor domain access on my Hyper-V virtual machine, this is how my host configuration look like
Host network
For me all look good, but when I turn on my virtual machine this is what I get
VMs network
VMs ping
I can see the machine getting a IP from my DHCP server, but it is impossible for me to ping any of the gateway, DNS.
My DHCP
This is how my virtual switch look like
vSwitch Hyper-V
And if needed my Ipconfig of my Windows server Hyper-V host
Hyper-V host network
I think that i have now tried everything I could, I don't see why my machine can get a DHCP IP, but can't communicate with any of my server.
I already have a topic posted on SpiceWorks (https://community.spiceworks.com/topic/2326264-hyper-v-wont-provide-internet-access-on-my-virtual-machine?page=1#entry-9231547), the last answer suggested that the problem came from my vSwitch on Hyper-V, but even after recreating a new one I can't get anything.
If you have any idea that can help me to achieve my configuration even the slightest one I'll gladly take it.
First thing I would like to ask, you are doing a Double Nested Virtualization, meaning: [ESXi] is the BareMetal Hypervisor, then inside of this Host you have at least 2 VMs, one name "SRVPARDC001" & the Hyper-V VM named "TESTHYPERV" , and inside this last one you have another VM called "VDI-Master" , if this is correct, you are asking:
*Why is VDI-Master, not getting internet, when SRVPARDC001 has leased an IP address ( 192.168.1.118) ?
My question is, why does the ipconfig output for VDI-Master show IP 192.168.1.121 , which per your DHCP, should be leased to the Desktop
Would it be possible to use a different subnet for the Virtual Switch inside the Hyper-V , to eliminate routing/dhcp issues?
My impression is that there is an issue on how the virtual switch is configured on the TESTHYPERV vm, since that virtual switch should be allowing the traffic upstream to the ESXi host and then out via your gateway/router/firewall device.
So I have a very strange issue. I've setup 2 NIC's, 1 for the host OS (windows 2012 with Hyper V) and a guest OS (Windows 2012 - Active Directory). I've setup 2 physical nics, 1 for the host and another for the VM's.
Unfortunately the problem seems to be when I try to set the guest OS to a static IP on the local subnet (which works with DHCP), but the moment i assign a static IP, it stops communicating with anything but the local IP's for the Host OS.
I've tried several different things for the virtual server (guest OS) and so far nothing is working. If I leave it set to DHCP, its fine with all connectivity. However the moment I set it to a static, it stops me.
At the current time I have the Host OS (Server) with 2 physical nic's:
Nic1 - Host OS connectivity
Nic2 - Hyper-v Virtual Switch configured "External network" for all VM's
Guest OS - connects using DHCP through Nic2 (External Network). Should be bridged, but when I set to static, I lose all connectivity to the external network, but switch back to DHCP and it works great.
Whats going on? Am I completely missing something obvous here?
So in case anyone finds this question I thought I should at least post the answer I found.
It would appear that the problem is not with my Hyper-V setup. The problem was with the router that the system was attached to. I have a ZYXEL USG1000 that is controlling the network with Hyper-V, and it appears that this model does not work in the same way as other router products I've experienced (Cisco/Juniper/etc).
I was able to verify that the VM's could actually ping/access other systems within the same subnet assigned to them, but they still could not cross the gateway. There is a IP/MAC Binding option within the Zyxel router software and until this VM's MAC was added to the binding list, only then would the gateway pass traffic from the VM's.
So in case anyone else runs into this similar situation, check out your router and the mac/IP binding for your VM's.
I have been trying to setup a Win7 VM on Hyper-v that connects to the internet through my Win 8 host machine.
I can't seem to figure out why the VM can't ever get passed limited connectivity. Any ideas?
NO sure why but all I had to do was Disable/enable the vEthernet adapter and everything worked great!
Check that you have a Virtual Switch with an "External Network" using the Virtual Switch Manager.
The other network types offer VM isolation. If your VM is on an "Private Network" it can only talk to other VMs on the server. The "Internal Network" allows VMs can talk to other VMs and to the host.
In contrast, an External Network allows the VM to contact machines on the network that the host is attached to.
I worked on this issue for a while myself after upgrading to Windows 8.1 and losing connectivity. Added and removed the adapter to no avail. The solution was to upgrade the VM's Integration Services.
I had the same issue because my DHCP settings on my guest VM was setup wrong.
So check the DHCP setting if they are on obtain automatically.
Control Panel\Network and Internet\Network Connections
Network adapter properties -> Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4) -> Properties ->

I have had great success with Hyper-V and windows 8 and windows 10 virtuals using external switches with a Windows 8.1 host. Unfortunately I could not get the external switch to ever work on windows xp virtual running under Hyper-V. Instead, after reading a lot of sites/suggestions, I followed this guide to bridge an internal virtual switch (with Hyper-V legacy network adapter for XP) to the host wifi. I hope this saves someone else some time when working on an XP virtual.
Using Hyper-V with a Wireless Network Adapter
I'm trying to develop an interface to an application that doesn't run on Windows 8. Hence, I've created a VM with Windows 7 running the integration service and another service running on the Windows 8 host.
I have three Virtual Network scenarios configured for Hyper-V: Wireless, Shared and Internal. Where Wireless allows all VMs and the host to connect to a wireless network (External), Shared let's the VMs connect through the host via a VPN (Internal) and Internal creates a network within the host where the VMs don't have network access (Private).
When I'm in Wireless (External) mode and there's a wireless network to connect to, everything works fine as if I were testing using to physical PCs on a wireless network. However, today I had a situation where I wasn't connected to a network but still wanted to do some testing and I could not get the VM to see the host and vice-versa. This scenario was quite straight forward to create on VMware which I used before switching to Hyper-V...
Has anyone managed to make Client Hyper-V VMs and the host communicate without a network? Can you guide me how to set it up?
Wireless networking under Windows 8 Hyper V can not communicate with multiple VM the Wireless NIC is assign to only one Hyper V internet connection,
Meaning only one Hyper V can connect to the Internet preventing others from connecting unless you use multiple Nic's Wireless Network Cards or USB Wireless Network.
It is only after you restart or shut down your computer that Hyper-V problems start.
So if you can not connect any of your Hyper VMs then you problem could be due to a shutdown error that Hyper-v in counted Try restarting the whole computer then Hyper- VMs your problem should fix itself.
Might want to try this. I am having similar problems as you and all signs point to this particular solution working, but for me it is not. Might help you, though.

The solution that DID end up working for me was this:

I am trying to run a virtual LAMP machine on my windows 7 for dev purposes. But i cant figure out how to reach the apache from the host windows 7 system. I did an ifconfig and tried the ipaddress, but to no avail.
If you set virtualbox to use bridged (regular) networking then it's no different from any other machine on the LAN, if you set host only then you can still call it - you just need to know it's IP address.
See http://opensourceexperiments.wordpress.com/2008/04/18/virtualbox-case-study-making-host-only-networking-work-between-two-ubuntu-guest-os-virtual-machine-on-windows-vista-host/
You will need to set the networking mode of your VM in virtualbox.
Bridged will allow others on the LAN
to access your VM.
Host-Only will allow your host and
any other VM's also configured as
host-only to access one another.
Virtual Box Neworking
If you look at the link you will have many different options on the type of networking you can do.
as mentioned earlier, I recommend either:
Bridged networking that makes the box look like an other computer on your network. They you may use ipconfig on the box or verify your router logs.
Host-Only networking is where your windows 7 will be its own network between the box and windows and then you may use the Ip address from ipconfig.
