Not able to connect to Internet from Visual Studio Emulator for Android

I just installed VS 2015 RC and opened up the VS emulator for Android. I am not able to connect to internet from this emulator. I went to settings -> WiFi and could see its turned on, but not showing as connected to any network. Upon turning off the wifi and turning it on, I could see the status as "Connecting".

How do I configure this emulator to access internet ?

Why is my android studio emulator not working?

If the emulator fails to launch due to the error vulkan-1. dll cannot be found , you probably need to update the emulator. To update the emulator in Android Studio, go to Tools > SDK Manager and install the latest stable version of Android platform.

I had to just disable the VirtualBox Host-Only Network adapter, which Genymotion emulators under VirtualBox used (Control Panel - Network and Internet - Network Connections on Windows 10), then restart the emulator and it works like a charm.
