Everything is working just fine with NAT configuration.

With the previous osx Catalina both network were running just fine, either NAT or bridge.

anyone else got this issue or its just me ?

thanks

Hi,

I have the same problem, with Windows or Linux.

Cannot download files with "Network Error". But no problem with the same donwnload when I switch to NAT, without reboot the guest.

Thank you for your help

Hi @greluc

Have the same problem.  NAT works, but bridged does not.  Using WiFi to connect Mac host to network which worked on prev version of fusion.

Update: Ran a long network cable across my room and plugged in my iMac host.  Bridged networking seems to work on windows 10 guest.  But wifi does not...  Is there a fix in the works, or some steps I can try?  Thanks!

Thank you for the tip!

I thought it had something to do with the used crypto algorithms or my computer.

Hi there,
I'm tired of waiting for VMware to finally fix this bug; I switched to Parallels.
VMware doesn't really seem to be interested in virtualization solutions on clients anymore; a shame really. But maybe it's time to discontinue Fusion and Workstation.
I for one have decided and replaced Fusion and Workstation with Parallels as written. Works, runs and is stable.
