    Posted Jan 07, 2014 09:12 PM

    Hi all,

    i am having 32 vm on esxi and want to connect each vm with one WLAN Adapter.

    but problem is maximum 15 controller can be monitor by USB arbitrator(so at any given point of time i am not able to connect more that 15 vm to WLAN Adpater).

    please suggest how to resolve the issue.

    Is that the maximum connection possible for one ESXi host?

    Hi,

    in ESXi, USB arbitrator can monitor maximum of 15 usb controller.

    To connect usb wlan adapter in need to create usb controller in each VM.

    so if  i am creating more that 15 usb controller than usb adapter attach from 16th one is not visible in vm.

    Can't you pass it to the 16th VM through nics(ethernet). Can't you pass wifi from USB to Ethernet through internal communication? Something like using windows features or something.
