Hyper-V Windows 8: Error Applying Virtual Switch Properties Changes - Wireless network

Discussion Hyper-V Windows 8: Error Applying Virtual Switch Properties Changes - Wireless network

  • יום שלישי 20 ספטמבר 2011 03:33
     
     

    I am experiencing an issue when I removed the Wireless device and then re-installed it on Hyper-V Windows 8.

    The error states : "Failed while modifying virtual Ethernet Switch connection settings" followed by "Ethernet port {f...} bind failed unspecified error (0x80004005)"

    Is anyone else experiencing this kind of issue?

    I also tried the following commands to Reset Hyper-V Networking in Windows 8:

    1. c:\>netcfg -u vms_pp

    2. c\>netcfg -l c:\windows\winsxs\amd64_wvms_vspp.inf_31bf3856ad364e35_6.2.8102.0_none_8bf66ac0928702ad\wvms_vspp.inf -c p -i vms_pp

    3. restart the machine and recreate the virtual switch

     

    Still not working for the wireless nic

    Get yourself a copy of nvspbind:

    http://archive.msdn.microsoft.com/nvspbind

    And nvspscrub.js:

    http://archive.msdn.microsoft.com/nvspscrub/Release/ProjectReleases.aspx?ReleaseId=2916

    Then follow these instructions to clean up the mess:

    Hi Philip

    I tried that already and it did not work.

    Although I am running Windows 8, most of the commands still working like nvspbind.

    but, still not working for the wireless nic

    Wireless should be working with Client, but there are reports of it not working with Server at this time.

     There are two options:


    1. Look for a wireless access point that has a decent DHCP server in it (this may take a while)


    2. Disable the DHCP server in your wireless access point and use a Windows Server 2012 DHCP server in a handy virtual machine

    or a third option, which is the one that I am currently using :

    Note:
    Microsoft already worked in this issue, but the fix is not present in the beta version

    Ok I faced similar issue in Windows 2012 and I simply uninstalled my NIC/Wi-Fi device from Device manager, then I scanned for device and reinstalled the device.

    That is it after that I can successfully able to create external switch and so on.....hope it will work for you without doing much.

    I experienced the same problems in W8x64 installed on a MacBook with Boot Camp. Uinstalling the WLAN driver then letting it reinstall itself fixed the error Message and let me set it up as a part of a virtual switch (VS).

    I installed a W7 as a VM using the VS and was unable to connect to the internet through it from inside the VM.
    I then selected "Not Connected" as VS in the settings for the W7 VM, started the VM, logged in, and then changed the VS in the settings of the VM to the VS, and the image was able to connect to the internet with no problems.

    Weird, but effective.

    Hi Alessandro,

    I am having the same issue and approached a HyperV MVP Aidan Finn. It looks like no one knows when this issue will be resolved.

    Depending on why your are using Windows 8 for HyperV (Lab, Testing, Development) and need to activate Windows or apply updates. The workaround I can think of would be to store the Virtual Machines on a External Drive and when you need to internet access on the machines import them from the external drive to Windows 2008 HyperV or Windows 2012 HyperV. 

    I will say I havent tested this myself yet but plan to over the next couple of days.

    Im using Windows 8 Pro HyperV for my Microsoft Lync Lab testing

    Regards

    Hi Andrew Since working with RTM version, I had no issue with wireless on Windows 8. The issue I reported here was actually with the server version What kind of issue you have with the client version ?

    Hi,

    I am running Windows 8 Pro and when I try and bind the Virtual Switch with a Netgear Wireless Adapter. I get the following error 

    Failed while adding virtual Ethernet switch connections. Ethernet Port (long guid) bind failed: Catastrophic failure (0x8000FFFF)

    2. c\>netcfg -l c:\windows\winsxs\amd64_wvms_vspp.inf_31bf3856ad364e35_6.2.8102.0_none_8bf66ac0928702ad\wvms_vspp.inf -c p -i vms_pp

    Thanks, that worked for me! I'm running Windows 8 x64 RTM so the command for me was

    c\>netcfg -l c:\Windows\WinSxS\amd64_wvms_vspp.inf_31bf3856ad364e35_6.2.9200.16384_none_011140b7d740cce9\wvms_vspp.inf -c p -i vms_pp

    Uninstalling my wifi adapter, re-installing then adding the virtual switch worked for me. The down side however, I had to repeat the uninstall/install process after I had finished using hyper-v machine in order to restore internet connectivity to my PC.
