WindowsPhone 8 Emulator has stopped my internet from working - networking

Yesterday I installed WP8 SDK and built a simple hello world app, next time when i logged on to my laptop the internet was not working and i still cannot get it to work. In network adapter settings there is a connection to emulator and one is for my connection to wifi. It looks like wp emulator has messed with internet settings etc.
Please help.
Regards

Instead of using manual settings for wifi or you internet use DHCP.
Using DCHP works for me as windows phone emulator creates switches and change your internet settings.
I hope this will work for you.
UPDATE
Here is a tutorial How to enable DHCP in windows?

make network requests seem to be coming from the tethered PC not from the mobile device

I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask question..but sorry if it's not. At our work, we have a product hosted in our office network and we use VPN on Windows PCs to connect to it. We need to test this product on safari ios and chrome android. I could just test this product on android chrome, without any problem, using android simulator for windows. But I cannot do the same with ios since there's no ios simulator for windows. My question is, is there a way for me to make the server thinks that requests from my ios devices is coming from my windows PC that has VPN already set up? I've tried reverse tethering but the server refuses my connection probably because of differences in MAC address.

How to start internet in emulator of windows?

I'm using Windows 8.1 and visual studio 2013 to develop windows phone application.
I'm also using PCL to interact with Web Service
I'm using HTTPClient to call web service method and get response in JSON format
when I try to run application on emulator or physical device , appliction is not working.
I would suggest testing the internet connection using IE and if you can browse to internet sites. If you can browse using IE, then you might want to check your application endpoint\URL is correct.
If you have problems connecting to internet from IE, then check the WiFi connection and\or data connection on device to see if it is setup correctly. For Emulator you can follow below steps troubleshoot internet connectivity issues.

Windows phone 8 Emulator internet issue with vodafone 3g stick k3772

Internet is working on all other applications but not on windows phone emulator 8.
i tried deleting the network bridge(from network connections) and restarting the emulator to make new network bridge, it didn't work.
also i tried to manually add this "Mobile Broadband Connection" to bridge (from network connections) but its not showing the option.
i tried using virtual switch manager to make new virtual network switch for external network namely "vodafone adapter" but there also its not showing the vodafone adapter.
Could it be that vodafone doesn't allow internet sharing or something ?
Any workaround to get my usb stick internet working in my emulator would be helpful.
Thanks
And also the strange thing is internet works in emulator additional tools-location tab but won't work in any of the apps (including internet explorer and bing maps etc. )
i am using visual studio 2012 professional, sdk 8.0 , windows 8 .
and my emulator internet works fine with other network adapters.
It could be the problem with IP address.
Check out this thread. This may help you.

debugging iOS AIR app from FlashBuilder running under Windows/Paralells on a Mac

On my Windows 7 workstation at work, I use FlashBuilder 4.6 to debug iPad apps all the time. The process is simple and reliable -- start the debugger which begins waiting for the app to notify it, move the app into iTunes, move it onto the iPad, launch the app, the app notifies the debugger that it is running, debugging works!
At home I am running Windows 7 under the latest version of Parallels on my iMac running the latest version of Lion. I go through the same process: I connect my iPad (the same one from work) to the Windows VM, and Windows iTunes recognizes it and syncs files just fine. I can move a non-debugger version of the app onto the iPad and it runs just fine. However, when I start the debugger in FlashBuilder and then move the app onto the iPad and launch it, the app is not able to find the Flash Debugger. When it launches I just get a black screen for about 2 minutes, then I get a message asking me to enter the IP address of the Flash Debugger.
There is an old help document indicating that this is due to the iPad and then debugger host computer not running on the same wifi, but I don't think it's relevant. My workstation at work isn't even connected to wifi.
I will consider any advice. It's pretty important for me to get this up and running at home. I tried running directly under bootcamp, but both Microsoft and Adobe consider the bootcamp install to be a unique install of their products.
Thanks!
I think it's due to the VM environment. Make sure that your ipad is connected to the vm environment and not to the host.
It turns out that the "help document indicating that this is due to the iPad and the debugger host computer not running on the same wifi" was spot on. At my work environment, the wifi and the ethernet lan are on the same network. I was mistakenly assuming that the iPad and the debugger were communicating via the USB cable, but this is not the case. I think what happens is that FB embeds the ip address of its computer in the debuggable app. The app then connects to FB at that IP address.
My problem was that I had the Network Settings of my VM set to "Shared" under the Parallels hardware config set up. My VM then had a 10.211.55.x ip address instead of a 196.196.0.x ip address, which is the range of addresses on my LAN. Changing the setting to "Shared" fixed the problem.

how to connect to a web service from windows mobile(when running emulator)

I have as asp.net webserver that I hosted and I went to my mobile application I am building and made a web reference to it.
So it finds it and stuff and now I can access the web methods because of the wsdl generated. However when it tries to connect I get this:
Could not establish connection to network.
So do I have to enable something to make this work?
Take a look at this article. It explains how to setup your mobile device for internet connectivity.
Windows Mobile Emulator and Internet Connectivity
It's been awhile since i have had to do this. Perhaps it is as easy as Matt has suggested, I can remember having a hard time making this work with Windows Vista, Visual Studio 2005 and the Windows Mobile 5.0 Pocket PC Emulator. I've found a couple more articles, hope this helps.
HOWTO: Configure Network in Windows Mobile / PocketPC Device Emulator
Making Emulator to connect to the Network
I have used web services and rest based services via webrequests on the emulator without needing to configure the NE2000 adapters.
Change activesync or WMDC to connect using DMA (in wmdc: mobile device settings | connection settings, then set 'allow connections to one of the following' to DMA)
Then in VS2008, under tools select device emulator manager, and pick the emulator that is running, right click on it and select cradle, this should connect activesync/wmdc to the emulator and provide a network connection that is sufficient to communicate over http with web services.
