Its quite possible your issue is related to dns - but you need to understand what exactly your using for dns, and why is it not resolving - can you not get there like your ping shows, is your router blocking you from the internet because your bridging wireless? etc. If you do a nslookup or dig or host on mint what does it show you for your nslookup Server: 192.168.1.253

# DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE BY HAND - YOUR CHANGES WILL BE OVERWRITTEN # Dynamic nf(5) file for glibc resolver(3) generated by resolvconf(8) You can look into why you can not get to 8.8.8.8 - but wouldn't you just be using your router as your dns? In your min what does your nf show for your name cat /etc/nf You do understand 192.168.1.1 was telling you cant get to 8.8.8.8ĭo you have mac filtering on your router? As stated before bridging wireless can bring its own pain. I am using VMware 9 and it works flawlessly when I switch between the 2 :)

I am not quite sure which version of VMware you are using but if you often switch between wifi and lan, I would like you to suggest selecting atheros ethernet adapter as well and in VM settings untick "Replicate physical network state", so that the VM doesn't see the network link getting disconnected when you switch. VMnet0 cannot be seen because it is bridged with your physical adapter directly and Windows Firewall doesn't affect the connectivity between your VM and physical network. If you are using the default configuration, you should see VMnet1 and VMnet2/8 in your windows network connection. Next select the Network Mode as NAT or Bridged. Choose the Network Adapter using which you wish to connect virtual machine to internet connection. Alternatively you can also press ' Ctrl + D ' to open the virtual machine settings. you'll see how each of the adapter is configured and indeed change the default configuration completely as you need. Click on Player on the top menu, from the drop down menu select Manage and click on Virtual Machine Settings. If you go to Edit -> Virtual Network Editor. Ensure that your Mac has a working network.

To troubleshoot your network and Internet connection: Note: If you have upgraded from Windows XP to Windows 7, see Upgrading a VMware Fusion virtual machine from Windows XP to Windows 7 (1015396) and perform steps 13 through 24. (You cannot ping 192.168.136.1 because you are connected to VMnet0) If there is an Internet connection, do not proceed with further steps. VMnet2/8 - Used when you select the NAT option. VMnet1 - Used when you select the host only mode VMnet0 - Used when bridging option is selected It seems you have some confusion about how VMnet adapters work.īy default the VMnet adapters are selected as below:
