If you are having problems with bridged wireless networking:
1) What Mac do you have?
MBP core 2 duo with 3MG RAM
2) What version of Mac OS X are you running?
10.4.10
3) Are you running B, G, N or a combination of wireless networking technologies?
4 Macs on the network: 1 MBP core 2 duo-802.11n, 2 MB's-802.11n, 1 MBP core duo-802.11g
4) What base station are you connected to?
Airport Extreme V2 802.11n
5) Have you applied the latest Airport Update from 7/30 and does it help?
Yes, before I downloaded the Beta version and now the full version and, no, it doesn't help.
6) If you are using N networking, if you drop back to G or B networking, does the problem occur?
Not sure, but I don't want to mess with my network and don't have time.
Other info:
I had no network connection in VMware when Windows was set to get an IP automatically. Airport uses 10.0.1.x IP address scheme and VMware had an IP address scheme of 192.168.15.x. Windows had internet access, but no access to the Airport network. I assigned a static IP of 10.0.1.212, which is outside the normal range of IP's assigned by the Airport Extreme. With a static IP, both the network and internet became accessible. Soon after, I lost connection with both the MBP and VMware Windows PC to the network. Regaining network connectivity was inconsistent. Stopping and starting Airport worked once, but restarting the MBP was required in another instance.
All the occurred on Sunday 8/05/07 with the BETA version, but it happen again today (Monday 8/06/07) with the final release. All this renders VMware virtually useless.
