This was very helpful. I had similar problems when I was using 17 Player (I even tried Workstation 17 Pro for the custom network config) and I couldn't get it to work properly on wifi but wired ethernet worked great. After reading this post I tried rolling back to earlier versions (I was using 17.0.1). Installing 16.2.5 works fine and 17.0.0 seems to be working ok for now. Upgrading to 17.0.1 breaks bridged wifi connections.
