Connection failed to the public CS:GO server on your Hyper-V host.
I'm working on linking to a public server from a Hyper-V machine so that I and my friends can play together. The network isn't working for LAN, but it does connect fine otherwise. The problem arises when trying to start a parsec session from the Hyper-V host (video data not coming through) and with CS:GO. This has made me think there might be an issue with UDP traffic, though my networking knowledge is limited, so I'm unsure what to do next. Any advice would be greatly appreciated as I'm still confused.
You need a hyperv instance to join a public CS:GO server so you can play with friends. This seems confusing at first, but I’ve used VirtualBox and Unraid before. I set the network to bridge mode, which lets the VM appear as a real device on the local network. In theory, this makes it behave like a physical machine. I haven’t run into any problems with this setup. Still, some anti-cheat programs may flag VMs as suspicious.
This approach seems questionable, especially if you're not intending anything serious. Consider why you're attempting to run a VM for CS2.
