Hello and thank you for your time. I'm wondering if there is a way to force my host operating system to use a specific network card? Here is my story. I recently enabled Hyper-V on my Windows 8.1 desktop. When enabling Hyper-V it created a network switch. This switch is an external switch with access to my host's network card. I also created an internal switch for a different subnet. See the screenshot for a little more details
What I notice is that when I'm browsing to websites on my host OS, it pauses for maybe 10 seconds saying resolving host. The web page then loads as expected. This did not happen prior to Hyper-v. So I'm thinking that maybe traffic is being routed through the Hyper-V switches and back out? Is there a way to verify this, or maybe force the host to use a specific NIC card?
