I’m using VMWare Worksation (ver 6.5) and i want to connect to the internet using a VM (win 2003 server OS)
I configured the VM Network adapter to use NAT option ( there are other options such as Bridged and Host only). as i realized, VMWare uses the VMNet 8 Virtual switch to connect to the physical NIC on my host.
it has created a Virtual network adapter connection with name VMNet8 in my host’s connections folder and is by default disabled. (but i enabled it)
on the other hand, on my host, I have a wireless connection that connects me to the internet using an access point.
with the above settings i can’t access the internet via the VM. I tried many different ways but they didn’t work, and now I’m at my wit’s end!!

do you have any idea?

thanks for your help!

How is your networking setup?
