Microsoft Network Adapter Multiplexor Driver Hyper V
. Note: This download has now been retired. If you would like to get the Virtual Machine Network Driver, please download Virtual PC 2007 fromThe Virtual Machine Network Driver allows the Device emulator's OS (or even the Virtual PC OS, as the case may be) to emulate its own network connection. Because the physical network interface on the host machine is now 'virtualized,' you have a way to get two IP Addresses - one for the host PC, and one for the operating system that is running within the Device Emulator (or Virtual PC). Device Emulator users using the VMNet Driver can connect to the host machine over TCP or UDP as the alternative to the standard 'Activesync over DMA' solution.Download the MSI for the VMNEt driver and go through the standard installation process.
The VMNet Driver will get installed.To check if you have the correct driver installed, Open Network Connections and right click to Properties. You will see a window that lists all the software connections on the machine. Virtual Machine Network Driver (or Services) will be in there as an item.The VMNet Driver is also added in the Control Panel - Add/Remove Programs Tab. So if you want to uninstall, just go here and remove the driver.This VMNet Driver is availabale for install 'as-is' and is not a supported service. It is not a part of the Visual Studio 2005 product, and is being given as an additional tool to aid developers that need another connectivity option other than Activesync.For more information about using the drive, please visit:The Visual Studio for Devices Team Blog: may also post questions at the Device Emulator public forum: http://forums.microsoft.com/msdn/showforum.aspx?forumid=76&siteid=1.
Looking at my network connections in Windows 8.1, I see two connections. One appears to be the actual physical adapter on the motherboard (Intel(R) 82579V Gigabit Network Connection). The other is a Hyper-V Virtual Ethernet Adapter.

Both appear enabled,but the virtual one is the one that has IPv6 and IPv4 bound to it and the virtual one is the one that is being used. I don't know of any Hyper-V activities on my system and have no idea how that virtual adapter got there. Should it be there? Should I beusing it instead of the actual physical adapter? Should I unbind everything from the virtual adapter and bind them to the physical adapter? Hi David,That's the virtual adapter needed for connections of guest Operating Systems, which run under Hyper-V.
If you do not need Hyper-V and do not run a guest Operating Systems you can disable Hyper-V, which will remove that virtual adapter.I would suggest you to try the following steps to disable hyper-V.a) Press “Windows key + W”.b) Type “Turn Windows Features on or off” without quotes in the search box and hit enter.d) Un-check “Hyper-V” and click on OK.e) Restart the computer.Hope the information helps.
