Constantly losing internet connection in Windows 8.1 virtual machine

(Support ticket 118554616)
Despite a stable internet connection (via ethernet) in Mac, my Parallels VM running Windows 8.1 constantly drops its internet connection. I am running Parallels 12 in default setup.
In the Windows VM, hovering over the Network icon in the task bar shows 'Network 2 internet access' and 'Unidentified Network no internet access' so I wonder if there's a settings conflict somewhere?
Here is the ipconfig report. Can anyone offer me some advice please?

 

I'm having the same problem in Win10pro.... Did you ever figure it out?

Be blessed,
Frederick

 

Hi, please change the Network Card from "e1000" to "Intel Gigabit 82574" in the VM Config -> Hardware -> Network -> Advanced -> Type. Post one more problem report if it doesn't help.

 

Aloha!

Thank you for your knowledge and support. I opened the hardware > network > advanced > type and Intel Gigabit CT 82574L was already selected. I figured since I was there I would go ahead and switch it to Intel Pro/1000 MT and give that a try. I am traveling at the movement and won't have reliable internet for a bit.

I will post an update report on using the Intel Pro/1000 adapter type once I have did some testing.

Be blessed,
Frederick
