Network Bridge does not work-Win8 host, Win7 guest, Wireless

Hi all,

I run into a weird issue. just bought a ASUA S550CM ultrabook, Core i7, win8 64bit, touch screen. Installed VM player 5.0.1 on it and Win7pro guest. everything worked fine. Found an issue with the laptop and exchanged it. when I duplciated the same installation of vm player in the new machine, Network Bridge does notwork any more and got confict IP message, NAT works good though. I reinstalled vmplayer, Win7 guest, reboot router,,,almost everything I could think of to reset. There is another one vmplayer (4.0.4) running in XP host on the same wireless LAN, NAT/Bridge is good in win 7 guest though. Below is the ipconfig from Win8 host and Win 7 Pro guest.

Thanks in advance!
