Hyper-V Virtual Machine Remote Connection issue
-
You can't post when the image upload says 100%, it should not say that. You have to wait for it to go past 100% and finish processing the image and return the URL. The percentage is only the upload, not that the process is complete.

@scottalanmiller Sorry, I originally used the upload file, I didn't see the upload image next to it. I did not have permission to upload the file but the image worked ok. Thanks.

If you do a continuous ping to the VM host, does it ever loose packets?
-
@Dashrender No it does not. I have a constant ping running to it from the host, as well as a constant ping from within the vm to our gateway and neither drop any packets. Response time is usually 1ms.
I can rdp into the guest and maintain a constant connection without any drops at all.

Can you update the Host VM server NIC driver?
-
@Dashrender I did update the NIC driver. It is a Dell Server with Broadcom NetXtreme Gigabit NICs. It originally shipped with a 16.0 driver version, I updated to 17.4 from Dell's site. Rebooted and still the issue is the same. I even read an article about the same issue and trying to disable TCP/UDP Checksum Offload in the NIC driver properties. The machine is currently not in production so I tried it, but it didn't make a difference. However I only did that on the NIC 2 that is dedicated to the virtual guest network not the host NIC.

Have you disabled VMQ on the Host ?
-
@dafyre Also in the NIC driver properties? Yes, but only on the NIC 2 dedicated to the virtual guest network, not the host NIC.
-
@i3 I generally do a blanket ban on VMQ... It seems to kill my Hyper-V servers.

This seems to imply that the server came with an OS pre-installed. Is that right? This seems highly unusual for general best practices. If this is the case, perhaps a complete reinstall of the Host OS is in order?
