Android Studio - Android Emulator Wifi Connected with No Internet

Question

I have wasted a whole day trying out different solutions floating around in SO and other place mentioned to enable wifi on the android emulator but to no avail. Can anybody

Answer 1

Maybe this would help someone. I tried all the solutions above. Changing DNS, cold booting, etc. After several hours of trial and error, I went to the official docs, which said that the emulator picks up the DNS config. of host machine at emulator's boot time. I had VMWare installed on my machine, which installs a few network adapters. So, I just changed the DNS config. of all the adapters (including VMWare adapters), and cold booted my emulator. OMG, the problem which didn't seem to go away for hours, just got right!

Now, what I find odd is, I switched back the DNS config. of all the adapters to auto, and cold booted my emulator again. The WiFi still works just fine. OS: Windows 10.
