Bridge Mode Causing Packet Loss (NAT mode works fine)

When using bridged (WiFi) or bridged (Autodetect) modes on the latest version of Fusion, I am getting about 4% packet loss in my Windows 10 VM, and unable to get a DHCP address.  When I change to NAT mode, the problem goes away. I am running the latest El Capitan preview, but there are no packet loss issues on the Mac.  How can I file a bug report?  Parallels doesn't have this problem but I would like to stick with VMware.

Thanks,

Brendan

Hi Brendan,

Thanks for using Fusion.

When using bridged (WiFi) or bridged (Autodetect) modes on the latest version of Fusion, I am getting about 4% packet loss in my Windows 10 VM, and unable to get a DHCP address.

How did you notice the packets loss? Do you mean ping a remote host? Thanks.
