With Win8.1 host and Win7 guest using a bridged connection, the host loses it's internet connect sometimes. I have to disconnect from the router (wireless) and reconnect and this will usually fix the problem. I tried disabling to NIC sleep mode to no avail.
FWIW the guest does not have an internet connection.

Re: Bridged Mode is killing hosts internet connection
Depending on your wireless hardware, this simply might not work at all. Does it work if you bridge on a wired connection instead?
