title: Windows Phone 8 Emulator not connecting to internet
body: <p>I am trying to connect Windows Phone 8 emulator to the internet. I have tried all the tricks and steps given in Stack overflow or any other site but I am unable to get it.</p>
  
  <p>I tried this:</p>
  
  <p>Step 1 - using Hyper-V start the server, once started u can see the two new network adapters added in the (network sharing) page.</p>
  
  <p>Step 2 - go to your visual studio IDE where your application runs, using Emulator run your application, once started try to open IE, it will not connect to internet.</p>
  
  <p>Step 3 - now again come back to network sharing page right click on external adapter which was created newly select properties, hit on sharing tab, now check the two options to have tick mark if not tick that two options and click on OK.</p>
  
  <p>Step 4 - internal adapter which was created newly will be changing the domain name from Unidentified network to your shared Domain name, once changed try to access the IE again in emulator which runs already. now i hope the internet connection works.</p>
  
  <p>But once it's done it is showing:</p>
  
  <p>The Windows Phone Emulator wasn't able to connect to the Windows Phone operating system: </p>
  
  <p>The phone didn't respond to the connect request.</p>
  
  <p>Some functionality may be disabled.</p>
  
  <p>The resolution to which I found on internet was:</p>
  
  <p>All you have to do is going to "Network and Internet --> Network Connections", right click on "vEthernet (Internal Ethernet Port) Windows Phone Emulator" and Enable it.</p>
  
  <p>But it was already enabled .
  So I don't know how to make internet work.</p>
