Network Bridge does not

Hi, I installed VMware Player with and created a Ubuntu VM with NAT networking. It worked great, but I needed to have it filled so I changed the type of the network card and it was working fine. He was my host computer is connected via Ethernet to my router. Recently, I changed my host computer to use a USB wireless adapter, Realtek RTL8167 802. 11 b / g USB 2.0 network adapter. Since then, network bridge is no longer works.

I extracted the VM network configuration tool and he ran. VMNet0 show still as Auto-transition. Just to be sure, I restore default which unintsalled all VMNets and reinstalled them. Same question. I also double checked that the Vmware Bridge Protocol has been enabled for my connection on the host computer wireless network.

I run tcpdump on the Ubuntu VM, and I see some broadcast from through traffic. I also see my DHCP requests to get out, but not answers. Of course, the DHCP server on my router is configured to give IPs for anyone. It's almost as if my host, Windows 7 SP1, is not fowarding on traffic.

Host: Windows 7 SP1 x 64

Comments: Ubuntu 10.10

VMware Player 3.1.3 - 324285

Any ideas? Thank you!

Disable the automatic bypass and assign specific VMnet0. the NIC as this feature can be buggy, if the host is multihomed. (More then having a NETWORK card).

That said, he can not help if your router does not support or is not configured to provide more then one IP address to the same with WiFi MAC address, which is not uncommon with routers managed in commercial environments and or some SOHO routers.

Take a look at my answer Re: Windows 7 - mode network... bridge problems for more details on the potential problem of router.

  • The network bridge does not

    I tried to create a network bridge between my LAN and wireless adapter, but my laptop ran out of battery halfway through. Now when I go to the properties of my wireless card it says that it is part of a network bridge. The problem is that the network bridge does not appear in the network sharing Center or when I run the map to see the command-line netsh bridge. I'm stuck now, unable to create a bridge or remove the ghost there wireless adapter seems to think it is. I have no restore point system to return to and am so stumped for ideas. Any help would be great.

    I have a Lenovo Z500 and had tried the troubleshooting that came with nothing.

    I was going to try reinstalling the driver, but before that I did decided to install the upgrade to Windows 8. 1. This seems to have fixed and I was able to create a network bridge that appears.

    Thanks for the help and the quick response

    2 uninstalled vmware player and all instances of the registry and the c drive and cleaned the system using registry cleaner, rebooted and installed the new version of VMware Player but still the same problem exists.

    3. reinstalled VMWare tools in guest operating system.

    So what you guys think about this problem, is it a solution?

    Thanks in advance,

    Hello

    I solved my problem by following this LINK .

    In fact, the problem was with the kaspersky antivirus (follow the link above) that was installed on my computer, here is the procedure I followed to make it work.

    1 uninstalled the kaspersky anti-virus.

    2 uninstalled VMware Player.

    3 reboot the system.

    4. installed in VMware Player back and make sure that the bridge network is working properly before installing Kaspersky return.

    5 reinstalled Kaspersky.

    and Voila Any return in the normal phase and my VM connects to the localhost network.

    Hope this helps someone.

  • The network bridge does not connect after resume the S3, Windows 7 x 64 & x 86.

    I installed a network bridge between my wireless network card and a local LAN port on my motherboard, I have my xbox connected to the LAN port and the wireless card has the connection to the internet.  Everything works as expected and I have full access to the internet on PC and xbox.  Issues occurs when I upgraded my PC to sleep and then wake the system, wireless connection works as expected and can see my router but the network bridge not be re - not connecting, I have to disable the bridge then turn it back on until it will work...
    The same Vista configuration worked without problem.

    I'm having the same problem as you, I'm trying to use my laptop to connect my Xbox 360 to my wireless network. It works very well, I have to disable and then re-enable the Miniport MAC bridge or a connection to the Local network after every sleep sleep before that it will work again.

    I noticed that I can not ping even the Xbox until one of these actions is carried out, I don't think that it is actually a problem with the network bridge, but with the ethernet connection (Marvell Yukon 88E8038 PCI-E Fast Ethernet Controller for me). I agree I think that it is an OS problem because I also do not experience the problem with ICS but then cannot be a State of NAT open for the 360.

    An obvious solution is a script that you can run to disable and re-enable the connection to the Local network, someone there at least an easy way to do this?

    EDIT: actually I think I just solved the problem by doing exactly the opposite of what I saw as the solution proposed several other places.

    1. open Device Manager

    2. Select the network adapters, find your ethernet card, do a right click on it and go to properties

    3. click on the power management tab.

    4. make sure that the "allow the computer to turn off this device to save power" box IS COCHEE

    5. apply the settings, and then click OK.

    FACT

    I hope this helps you.

  • Network Bridge does not work after copying on another system

    Hello

    I use VMware Server 1. I created a Fedora 9 guest operating system. I used bridged networks. I've edited/etc/sysconfig/network-script/ifcfg-eth0 and assigned static IP. It works very well.

    I copied the image to a different system and it turned. But now the networking does not work. It shows as instead of eth0 eth1. change the/etc/sysconfig/network-script/ifcfg-eth0 once again restores the networking. is their anyway to maintain the previous configuration after copying.

  • Network Bridge does not not having moved to welcome back network

    The host is Windows 7 x 64, using Workstation guest 6.5.4, is Windows 2008, bridge network on a Windows AD domain.

    I had this installer running a lot for a week or so, but yesterday we moved offices and I am now on a new subnet (but the same domain).  Networking networking is no longer seems to work, because I can't get an IP address.  I tried to manually set the VMNet0 to the physical card, rebooted twice (host and guest), restarted the service of vmnetbridge, don't know what else I should try before reinstalling the workstation.

    Any ideas?

    Thank you

    Hello and welcome to the forums.

    Make sure that the switch that you are now connected does not port security or something similar that would limit you to using a unique MAC address.

    Good luck!

  • Network Bridge does not - options

    I'm having a problem getting invited Ubuntu to successfully connect to the network via a bridge connection.  Found a couple of threads:

    http://communities.VMware.com/thread/313037

    http://communities.VMware.com/message/1543220#1543220

    There is mention of a network configuration tool and the recommendation to go to the workstation instead of player.

    I don't mind going to the workstation, but what happens when my 30 trial runs out?  You lose features or what?  I use it at home now, so I'm not sure that licensing terms are and what not.

    If it is preferable to get just the drive works, here's a bit more information:

    -ports 2 ethernet on the host computer, using one for all traffic

    -I also play with virtualbox as well as using xp mode in windows virtual pc, so there are a lot of cards and other installed.

    I looked at just uninstall player, get rid of all the stuff of network, he put in place, and then installing a drive of the workstation, if it would be easier.

    Of course, I don't mind that I like to learn, really the reason why I play with her in the first place to work through the issue with help from here.

    Thanks for any help.

    To gain a better understanding of the VMware Virtual Infrastructure of network I strongly suggest you read 14 chapters (setting up a virtual network) & 15 (advanced virtual networking) in the Manual of the workstation user , still less the rest of the documentation. (Also available in the help file of VMware Workstation).

    So if you want them to disable it is to you.  For example, I have a particular system that I never use anything but packed for the virtual machines that run as they provide Services on the LAN so I disabled VMnet1 and VMnet8 but if you plan to use NAT and or Host-Only then you will need.

  • the perimeter network on vmnet0 Bridge does not work

    Hey there ' All,.

    I've been running VMware for more than 8 years on workstation or server, but I have a last question a few days and I don't seem to be able to solve it.

    Here is some basic information:

    1. Windows 2003 x 64 sp2

    2. I have 4 nic (broadcom and intel)

    3. This server is running for 3 years. Dell 2950 2cpu Quad, 16 GB

    4. started with VMware Server 1.0.0 and am on VMware Server 1.0.10

    5. 5 VM work without problem.

    6. the server was at 6 or 7 months. has decided to update Windows.

    7. I shutdowned all these 5 VMs.

    8. (35 updates) windows update

    9. rebooted with no problems

    10. the host works very well. access to the Internet. everything is good.

    11. Start the vmware console and start one of the virtual machines (windows server 2003)

    12. system starts with the error: "the network device VMnet0 Bridge does not work. the virtual machine will not be able to communicate with the host or other machines on your network. virtual device ethernet0 will start disconnected.

    13. This massage is for all virtual machines.

    14. last thing on virtual machines: all NIC 2 (bridge and customized to VMnet1) running. That's how since 2007.

    what I've done since:

    1. Reinstall VMware 1.0.10

    2. restarted the server host

    3. update of two network cards (2 x broadcom and 2 x intel)

    4. I read on this forum that could be challenged NIC Cluster NIC but I've not grouped NIC

    5. played around with the settings of the host virtual network. removed changed etc... no luck

    6. I hear everywhere that under "automatic gateways" I need to uncheck. This could be the right track but that checkmark is grayed out.

    any pointer would be very appreciated.

    see you soon

    BIOS bug? I don t think so

    First of all, you must make sure that this isn't a hardware problem. In this case, insert the Toshiba Recovery CD and reinstall the operating system of this device. This will outline the laptop to factory settings. Notes; This would format the whole HARD drive.

    After the new installation, you must activate the WLan switch on the side of books, and you can then use the switch button FN + F8 to select the WiFi network.

    I assume that you have already configured your Wlan router. So the same settings such as the SSID, encryption of WLan, etc. must be defined on the laptop too.

  • I need help, its frustrating me! network discovery does not illuminate.

    my network discovery does not illuminate. Whenever I try to turn it on I get an error message that says: (the specified service does not exsist as an installed service)! I need to elp, its frustrating me! I have windows vista.

    Hello

    Did you change your computer?

    Method 1:

    Based on the network location you choose, Windows affects a State of network for network discovery and opens the Windows Firewall ports suitable for this State.

    Step 1: We recommend you to check if the elements of network discovery are enabled in Windows Firewall. To do this, try the following steps.
    1. click on start, type firewall and then click Windows Firewall with advanced security.
    2. click on rules of incoming traffic in the left pane and select the (SSDP-In) network discovery and network discovery (UPnP) - in the list.
    3. click on rules of outgoing traffic in the left pane and enable network discovery (SSDP-out) and the discovery of the network (UPnP-Out) in the list.
    4. apply the changes and check the result.

    For more information about network discovery, see this link:
    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/what-is-network-discovery

    Step 2: Check the status of the following services: browser, TCP/IP NetBios support.
    1. Click Start, type services.msc and press to enter.
    2. from the list of services, double-click the service computer browser and TCP/IP NetBios support.
    3. change the startup type to automatic and start the service.
    4. apply the changes.

    Method 2:

    Now we go ahead and try to enable the discovery of the network on your computer and check for the issue.

    Network discovery is disabled by default for public networks. Changing a network location type to home or work is the best way to turn on network discovery. To learn how to change a network location type, see Choosing a network location. To enable discovery manually, follow the steps below.

    To turn on network discovery

    1. open the network and sharing Center by clicking the Start button, clicking Control Panel, clicking Network and Internet, and then click Network and sharing Center.

    2. If network discovery is off, click the arrow button expand the section, click turn on network discovery, and then click on apply. Need administrator permission if you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.

    I also suggest you turn on discovery of the network link and check.

    Enable or disable network discovery
