Microsoft made a lot of changes to networking options! With the new advanced networking, apps can now access local network devices for ARM computers. This will enable the apps to take full advantage of this feature. With this update, Microsoft also enabled IPv6 and VPN connectivity in Windows Subsystem for Android. This will enhance the networking functionalities of the subsystem.
In version 2205.40000.14.0, Microsoft updated the Windows Subsystem for the Android Settings app which will now account for advanced networking.
