Internet connection issue

Need help with connection problem. I am not at all adept at problem solving, basic skills. 

Using Fusion 2.07 on my Mac OS 10.5.8    Had a fine conneciton until my cable/internet provider did a reconnect of service. 

Mac connects fine.  Lost connection on my virtul machine. Using Windows ?? (the one before Vista). 

Have VM set up for Bridge connection and network connection enabled.

When I try to reestablish the connection in Windows I get an error message "can't establish VPN connection"

When I check my connections under network connections it shows the LAN is connected.  I have also have a "virtual" connection that isn't connected. there is also my home network connection that isn't connected. Which of these last two connection am I to use?

How can I reestablish my connection? 

thanks!

Change to NAT, and reboot the virtual machine (not just suspend).
