Azure Stack HCI Test Build - Network Adapters won't validate

I'm trying to build an evaluation setup for Azure Stack HCI. I've created two nodes on my Nutanix cluster, but when I get to step 2.1 (Validating Network adapters) it simply hangs on Validating. I've tried choosing Manual or Automatic.
Any idea how I can fix this so I can continue with the cluster build?

    Hey,
    There might be an issue with your network connectivity. Have you checked whether nodes can reach other via assigned networks? https://video2.skills-academy.com/en-us/azure-stack/hci/manage/validate-qos

    In addition, check the following thread, where similar solution is discussed.
    https://next.nutanix.com/installation-configuration-23/hyper-v-cluster-hangs-at-validation-cluster-wizard-testing-options-with-failover-manager-7912

    In case you need to build a 2 node Failover Cluster, you can take a look at StarWind VSAN as a shared storage option. Check for more info: https://www.starwindsoftware.com/starwind-virtual-san

    Cheers,

    Also, you can check this troubleshooting guide, the validation logs should point the where the problem is.
