VM with vmxnet3 looses connectivity

Hello,

 

we just switch to 10 Gbit Ethernet. Hosts are connected and we just want to switch the VM´s as well to 10G (vmxnet3). So we installed on a Win7-Testmachine the vmxnet3 Adapter and started the machine.

 

Connection is ok so far. But after some time, the IP-Connection is lost. So I went to the energy-options of the NIC and disabled "Computer can turn off device to save power".

 

But also then the connectivity interrupts after some time.

 

The special thing about this Issue:

 

When we open the virtual machine console and move the mouse, then the connectivity comes back...

 

Has anybody expericenced this behaviour before?
