Thank you everyone for reporting this issue! A fix for it is in the works and should be coming soon. In the meantime, resetting the network adaptor by running "restart-netadapter *" OR "Restart-Service NlaSvc -Force" via PowerShell or CMD Prompt is a workaround.

I appreciate a functional workaround, but this issue has been present (particularly for single DCs) for many years now. Previously, the solution was restarting the "Network Location Awareness" service.

One of Microsoft's biggest and oldest server features should not be broken out of the box for this long!
