I am installing Server 2025 on my second and third host as VMs. I have successfully deployed Server2025 installs on primary Host machine but these new ones are giving me issues

The OS installs and seems operational. Network was set to DHCP and it connects to the internet.

Now of course I want to set the IP to Static and configure DNS to be my DC,

When I do this, a strange thing happens:

It seems it took some info like the gateway, but even the mask is off and it wont take the static IP

I searched for unused adapters etc in device manager but I cannot seem to find where the "ghost" adapter is so i can delete or disable it


Thank you for your help
