I can connect throw internet with my modem in 2 way:

1.Using dial up connection

2. using providers softweare

So I connect to host OS to internet, in VM settings I bridge my modem but internet does't work.

Hi

You can try to use NAT and internet connection sharing.

I mean you set the IP address of VMnet8 (the NAT enabled adapter) to 192.168.0.1, then activating on 3G dial-up connection the internet connection sharing and specify the VMnet8 adapter. And in VM network you must set the network adapter's network connection to NAT
