Reset Networksettings

Hello macusers,

I am using the test version of fusion 4 and I can't get nat working. I used vmware workstation on windows and the vm works fine so it must be mac os or fusion. I have  setup a vm with the 192.168.80.0 network. The networkadapert is set to nat. But it doesn't work. I can't ping my home networks which is the 192.168.178.0 network. I can't reach my router with a ping.

I really miss the networkeditor it is so easy Smiley Happy

Now what should I do? I tried to reset the Fusionnetworks settings. But I can't get it working.

If you use nat, please set your guest's network as DHCP. And it will get a IP like vmnet8 on host. If you want join your home networks, you may use bridged mode.

To see vmnet8, enter ifconfig in Terminal on host.
