I have Player 4.0.1 on Win2008R2 host. The guest is Ubuntu 11.
After the host machine hibernated once, the guest loses network connectivity.
Ping between host and guest does not work (actually, ARP does not work), even locally, on the host itself.
Neither host or guest detect any problem (ipconfig/ifconfig show correct addresses etc).
After reboot, the connection restores, and everything looks fine until next hibernation.
Is this a known issue with the Player or server 2008? Any workarounds?
Details:
- On a WinXP SP3 host (where this VM was created) this problem does not occur
- The guest VM has a bridged network interface with fixed address. The host is on DHCP.
The host has no network issues.
Host netcard is RTL8168D (VEN_10EC&DEV_8168&SUBSYS_D6128086&REV_03)
- The guest VM has been created with Workstation 7.1.0

Next time this happens, try
net stop vmnetbridge
net start vmnetbridge
from a command line (or in a bach file) to see whether this helps.
