VM has no Internet access - wifi

I am using Windows 8.1 in my laptop and I have created a Windows Server 2012 R2 Virtual Machine using Hyper-V.
I have tried to give the VM Internet access. I followed this thread, but my VM still has no Internet access.
I can see the Wi-Fi is bridged and the VM got an IP-address, and both my laptop and VM has same default gateway.

This doesn't sound like an issue with the HyperV setup. But instead just sounds like you aren't aware of the Enhanced Security Configuration placed on Internet Explorer by default in a server OS.
Check this out the following blog post on how to remove them.

Firebird database connection by FireDAC after Windows 10 update

I have some delphi applications with connection to Firebird database by FireDAC technology. It works fine, but after Windows 10 update 1803, cannot connect to database when I call application stored in network path (example: \comp1\share\myapp.exe or Q:\myapp.exe, Q: is mapped server path). Error status is 335544721 with illegal parameter.
The same build of application stored on local path works fine. Can anybody help Me?
I've got the same problem!! The reason is the Firebird version 1.5.x (maybe 2.5 too?). Windows Update 1803 blocks the communication between client and server. The only solution is to migrate to Firebird 3.0.x (or to uninstall the update - not a really good option).
I had the same problem with my delphi application I developed a couple years ago, after an update to windows 10 in one of my machines it suddenly drops the connection to the firebird server (2.50 in superserver mode) installed on a windows 7 host, while my other hosts (win xp, win 2003, win 7 and 8.1) connects normally, when I ping or telnet to the server adresse from win10 (telnet 192.168.1.X 3050) the connection establishes, I have tried everything like enabling Smbv1 and disabling v2 and v3, run it under a VM (win 7) machine inside win10 I was surprised to not being able to connect too, then I realised that it wasn't a network hardware configuration problem, but for unexplained reasons WINDOWS DEFENDER, I just disabled it and then my app was able to connect.
And don't rely on firebird's returned error messages they don't discribe the real issue, and can mislead you.
I forgot to mention that I did enabled some services before disabling win defender, wich were disabled after windows update 1803:
Set both Function Discovery Services to Automatic and Start Them
SSDP Discovery set to automatic.
UPnP Device Host set to automatic.

Crate.io: Can't connect remotely

I've installed a Crate DB on a Virtual Machine Ubuntu (xenial).
Since I want to connect to it from both my VM and my Windows host, I've tried to set the VM's IP on both params in crate.yml:
network.host
network.publish_host
The rest of the parameters I can see in crate.yml
But that won't do the trick (I get ERR_CONNECTION_TIMED_OUT error when I try to connect to "my_VMs_ip:4200" from my Windows host PC) and I can't find any way around it on crate.io nor on Google.
Would any of you have an idea?
Thanks a lot
NB: I'm running Crate 2.0.7

Want to test local server website on iPad

I have a issue. I have a website which is run via VMware. My website server is in VMware and after starting VMware I can access website on my desktop browser. Now I want to test same website on iPad and tablets. So is there anyway I can bridge between these two connection. My iPad uses wifi of same network with desktop. Please suggest if anyone has solution for this.
Use bridged networking
Then get the IP for your virtual host (Im assuming you've got a windows virtual machine there):
Start > Run > cmd.exe
ipconfig
Look for the IPV4 address (something like 192.168.0.145) and type that into safari location bar on the notepad.
http://192.168.0.145/

Accessing rails sever on a virtual machine from host machine

I've got Ubuntu (the newest version) running as a virtual machine on Windows 7 Pro, using VMware.
My question is, can I make the rails sever acessible to windows while the virtual machine is running?
So, for example, if I type on my Windows browser http://localhost:3000 I would get the rails sever?
Also, can I make it acessible to computers from the outside, so if someone would type
myipaddress:3000 he would be able to acess the sever as a client?
I hope this is clear.
There are a lot of "ifs" here, but it should "just work".
In Linux, find the IP address of your virtual machine.
$ /sbin/ifconfig
You're looking for a section that is probably labelled "eth0" and in that "inet addr".
Using that address with port 3000 from your Windows host should work fine. If not, post the specific problem that you're seeing, including any logs you can find or info on any firewalls you have running on your Linux client.

Help Configuring VirtualPC 2007 on Vista Host with XP VM to access Vista WAMP Server

I have a Vista laptop on which I'm running wampserver. I have Virtual PC 2007 setup with Windows XP running on the VM.
My goal is to be able to use the XP VM to run IE6 to view web pages on the Vista wampserver. I'm not interested in having the XP VM have any access to the internet -- only to my Vista wampserver.
The vista wampserver works fine. I've installed the MS loopback adapter, but every time I select it in the XP VM, I get a "network cable unplugged" error.
In any case, I've turned the wampserver to "server online" but I still can't seem to get the virtual XP to see the vista wampserver.
Ideally I'd just go to IE6 in the XP VM and type "localhost" to be able to get to the wampserver that's running on Vista. I've even tried typing in the machine's name, too, but to no avail.
I didn't play with static IPs, because I want this to be able to work regardless of whether or not I have internet access. So if I'm on the train and I have no wireless connection, I don't want the setup to be limited because the host (vista wampserver) doesn't have an IP. I also did not bridge the connections because I am not clear how that plays a role in all of this.
Thanks so much in advance for any advice.
did you install VM additions on VPC2007 (vmadditions.iso)?
did you define shared folders within in your VM's .vhc configuration file?
did you install SP1 and hotfix for VPC2007?
