Workstation 12 - Win10 client connect to network but can not browse - network icon shows

I have a win10 Pro Host with Workstation 12 and Win10 client.

The probelm is that the client is getting IP on bridged network.

It is also getting correct gateway and DNS,

But browser can not connect to the internet.

I can do look up from command prompt.

Any suggestion.

I have already tried this with the same problems:

Hi jpsider

I helped me to think this over.

I found that my Host security program and firewall blocked the traffic from my client.

Eventhough it would let ping, and other things from the command prompt in the client get though.

‌ccan you get to anything on you local network outside of the 'host' computer? It sounds like your host vm's is blocking the traffic, not necessarily a problem with win10 client.
