Add Network Adapter On Hyper V

How to add network adapter on Hyper-V?

You are trying to add network adapter on Hyper-V that means either you are leaving VMware or you are new to Hyper-V, but in both the cases you are going to use an awesome technology to virtualize your system and its resources.

I had be a fan of VMware for its numerous qualities but as we know that one negative is enough to forget 100 positives this happened with me as well. In my case during the implementation of Remote Windows Installation my softinspire.blogspot.com deployment got no success and failed multiple times because of the Intel adapter. I searched about this for 4 continuous day to get any solution and later on a website I found the clear notification about the unsupported adpater was causing that error message. The network adapter was not compatible or I would say not supported by Deployment services. I had no choice except leaving VMware with this fault.

Choosing Hyper-V as an alternative of VMware was not disappointing at all or rather it was a blessing in disguise. As soon as I added Hyper-V in Windows 8 so that I could perform the same phase of implementation and deployment, as I was a green hand in Hyper-V I began to encounter some problems from the very beginning.

The first thing that I noticed I have to add network adapter on Hyper-V manually or in different way I need to create a network adapter for it. It took some time for me to understand the platform of Hyper-V but later it proved right to be with Hyper-V. I am going to tell you how I added network adapter on Hyper-V.
