Struggling with IP4 in HAOS on Windows 11 / Hyper-V

I’ve searched the web and read many threads on here. I think i’m close, but I just can’t seem to get the right network configuration going.

First I created a virtual network adapter that is “external”. Added to VM, once HA boots, i see eth0 without any IP4 (or IP6 for that matter).

I tried to run variations of a suggested network update, but I’m end up with context deadline exceeded error.

Then I noticed that in Network Connections, wifi wasn’t included in the bridge. So I tried changing that:

After changing the bridge HA gets assigned an IP (great!) but instantly my wifi connection was dropped (bad, very bad!).

I’ve tried different permutations, but it feels like I’m chasing my own tail. Could someone kindly give me a push in the right direction?
