Environment: MacBook Monterey 12.3.1, PD 16.5.1
Bridge network is working through the following steps. It worked for ~30 minutes or so, then a CPU spike, the connection is lost. Is there a way to make the bridged connection hold longer?
1. Set Network to Shared. Stop PD and restart.
2. Verify network is working with Shared
Connection-specific DNS Suffix . : localdomain
IPv4 Address. . . . . . . . . . . : 10.211.55.3
Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.0
Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . : 10.211.55.1
3. Switch to Bridge - Default and verify it's working:
Connection-specific DNS Suffix . : lan
IPv4 Address. . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.1.58
Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.0

4. After 30 mins or so, the bridge network is lost:
ping google.com

Switching between Shared and Bridged seems to extended the lifespan of bridged.
1. Running Shared network - verified working
2. Switch to Bridged network - verified working
3. After 20 mins or so, repeat 1 and 2 twice, the bridged has been functioning over an hour.
I could buy time this way till PD 17 is good enough.
 
Found a solution that works. Don't know why I didn't try this approach earlier.
1. Set network to bridged, Default Adapter
2. Stop Window 10
3. Start Windows 10, the bridged network works for hours.
