How can I share my VM to the wifi network that I'm connected to?

I can ssh into the VM (Ubuntu) and the VM has internet access.

Everything works fine, but I want to access the VM with my mobile which is connected to my mac via the same WiFi network.

How can I achieve this?

Have tried Bridged Networking with WiFi but I couldn't access the ip shown in VMFusion.

Update: I did the Bridged Network with WiFi again and reboot the VM. It is able to connect now.

Thanks.

Hi resting,

Do you mean your mobile connect your mac through VNC?

If yes, you can try steps like this: Settings->Advanced->checked Remote display over VNC, and modify Prot number different with 5900 (e.g. 5901), and password is optional.

Then use "vnc:\\hostIP:5901" in your mobile, if your mobile support with VNC.

If you do like this, you can run your VM under any network mode, it doesn't need Bridge Network.

@mini2008  Did you not read the part of the OP that said, "Update: I did the Bridged Network with WiFi again and reboot the VM. It is able to connect now."! Smiley Wink
