[vpn-help] Ubuntu 14.04 virtual machine hosted by Hyper-V loses internet connection after installing Shrew Soft VPN Client

Hi All,

 

My work configuration is as follows:

 

-          Physical machine:

o   Windows 8.1 Pro Ultrabook

o   Hyper-V

o   Wireless connection to office Wi-Fi

-          Virtual machine (hosted by physical)

o   Linux Ubuntu 14.04

 

Virtual machine connection is provided by an internal switch sharing the physical machine wi-fi connection (http://snag.gy/cNKCY.jpg).

 

When I try to install Shrew Soft VPN Client on the physical machine, the virtual machine loses its connection to internet: does not ping google, can’t reach dns server (8.8.8.8), can’t do anything outside of it. Despite this lack of connection to the outside world, the physical machine is still able to contact the VM (ping, ssh, etc…).

 

Anyone has an idea on how I could solve this issue? Please let me know of any diagnostic I can run on physical or virtual machine, if needed.

 

Thanks in advance,

​
