How to connect Visual Studio 2015 Android Emulator to network?

I've recently installed VS 2015 RC and the Android Emulator seems to work great(it is very fast :)) except it can not connect to network. According to http://blogs.msdn.com/b/visualstudioalm/archive/2015/04/29/visual-studio-emulator-for-android-in-vs2015-rc.aspx the emulator should be able to connect to my WiFi card. I had a look at the emulator in Hyper-V Admin UI and it is configured in the same way as Windows Phone Emulator which works just fine. Any ideas?

How do I enable Android emulator in Visual Studio?

Just open up the Visual Studio Emulator for Android entry in your Start Menu, hit play, and the emulator is ready to debug from any IDE. Download the standalone emulator today!

I had the same problem, when installed RC tools to a PC that had Genymotion previously installed, so what I did was disable the VirtualBox Host-Only Ethernet Adapters (that Genymotion used), and restarted the emulator, then the network on emulator was working

Device Manager disabled network adapters
