Hello!
I've installed Windows Server 2008R2 x64 as a guest OS and it shows me an error (see pic).
Setting of the host (Windows 7 x64):
- wireless connection to the router
- all settings are dinamic
Details of the network adaptor on the guest OS shows strange settings.
The same behaviour when guest OS is Windows 7 x64.
At the same time i have a Windows XP as a guest OS installed and network works fine for it.
All settings for working Windows XP and not working Windows Server 2008R2 x64 (and Windows 7 x64) are the same.
Do you know a reason of this behaviour? And how could i resolve the problem?
How are you assiginig ip addresses - dhcp or static? if so dhcp then check setting and scope given - if static check possible conflict and also check for MAC address confllict.
also check which network vm is assigined to use by right click on vm then edit settings - network.
hope that helps.
>> How are you assiginig ip addresses - dhcp or static?
Do you mean in the guest OS? Well, i've tried both dhcp and static as well.
>> if so dhcp then check setting and scope given
DHCP scope is set in router (100-199), all other settings are default.
>> if static check possible conflict
There is no conflicts: router - 192.168.0.1; host - 192.168.0.103
All other systems were offline.
>> check for MAC address confllict.
What kind of conflict? MAC addresses are different.
>> also check which network vm is assigined to use by right click on vm then edit settings - network.
What do you mean?
Are you using ESX or ESXi - if yes then
Click on host --> Configurations---> networking then
vSwitch0 properties
Check physical nics assigined - check how many ports your virtual switch has.
on the vm side
check attached screenshot to select the network to connect vm to.
>> Are you using ESX or ESXi - if yes then
I have no idea, what is that
I've installed only Workstation on my system.
>> Click on host --> Configurations---> networking then
>> vSwitch0 properties
I have no vSwitch0 there.
>> check attached screenshot
my virtual machine setting looks differently.
see if this helps
