What is the IP address of the physical machine (where the VMware Workstation is installed) ?

Try putting all three in same subnet (host machine and guest machines)

Well that certainly is part of your problem! Smiley Wink  How do you expect it to function without providing Gateway and DNS IP Addresses!?

Also make sure the VM's Network Adapter is set to Bridged and in the Virtual Network Editor you might want to disable automatic bridging and assign VMNet0 to the Host's active NIC.

In this case, why don't you use either a Host Only network or a LAN Segment. Since the VM's cannot be accessed from the host anyway, a LAN Segment would probably be the preferred choice.

In your OP you said you were assigning Public IP Addresses to the Virtual Machines!

Why are you assigning the Virtual Machines Public IP Addresses?
