I just installed VMWare Workstation 7.1.2 on a Win7 machine a but it will not connect to the Internet I saw it creates two VMWare Network Adaptors labeled VMNet1 & VMNet8 with 192.168.x.x network addresses. Any reason why it will not connect to the Internet on a default installation? It used to work flawlessly on XP in the past when I installed it.

Are you referring to a guest OS or the actual host itself? – user48838 Oct 10 '10 at 21:25
Sorry I am referring to the virtual machine (I guess the correct term is guest, thx). – user56711 Oct 10 '10 at 21:40

I changed the Networking on the guest to Bridged & that worked like a charm.
