TCP Chimney requires network card support, so if you have a network card, like the one in my VM which does not support Chimney - you need to turn it off.

ReceiveSideScaling : Enabled
ReceiveSegmentCoalescing : Enabled
Chimney : Disabled
TaskOffload : Enabled
NetworkDirect : Enabled
NetworkDirectAcrossIPSubnets : Blocked
PacketCoalescingFilter : Disabled
The ones in BOLD should be disabled, so to accomplish that do this:
Set-NetOffloadGlobalSetting -ReceiveSideScaling Disabled
Set-NetOffloadGlobalSetting -ReceiveSegmentCoalescing Disabled
Set-NetOffloadGlobalSetting -TaskOffload Disabled
Then run this again:
Get-NetOffloadGlobalSetting
ReceiveSideScaling : Disabled
ReceiveSegmentCoalescing : Disabled
Chimney : Disabled
TaskOffload : Disabled
NetworkDirect : Enabled
NetworkDirectAcrossIPSubnets : Blocked
PacketCoalescingFilter : Disabled
Excellent, all done :)
