Wifi Performance when using bridged Hyper-V NIC is slow
Others have brought this up but I can reproduce it pretty consistently. Is there any way to fix wifi performance when Hyper-V is enabled with a bridged Wifi NIC?

Bridging wireless adapters often reduces performance because wireless connectivity is more sensitive to shared bandwidth and driver issues.

Instead of bridging the Wi-Fi adapter directly, create an Internal or External virtual switch in Hyper-V and connect your VM to it. Then, set up Internet Connection Sharing (ICS) or NAT on your host to share the Wi-Fi connection with the VM.
