how to work with two internet access on host

Hi,

i'm completly rookie on virtualization subject, so my question would be even funny for you, but i didn't find answer for it.

Here is my configuration and what i want achieve:

i have laptop with windows 7 professional; 64-bit and one LAN-wired and one WiFi adapter.

I've installed VMPlayer 3.1.4 and i am play windows xp on it.

I want to have internet access on my XP virtual machine working only using WiFi adapter but in this same time my host with windows 7 should have access throught Lan-wired adapter and as both of them are different network they shouldn't be seen each other.

on the other hand i want have easy way to switch the systems to be able to work on both of them using WiFi connection like i'm working now..

thanks for any answers

Michal

configure vmnet0 to be connected to the LAN interface and vmnet2 to be connected to WIFI

to do that you need to extract the virtual network editor first - have you done so already ?
