Fusion VM no talky!

[cairnsd]

Hello experts !

I have a Fusion 3 VM that can successfully see the Internet and other VM's that has been allocated an IP address of 192.168.29.20 ( allocated by Fusion I assume ).

The problem I have is that my PC on the same Home LAN/Segment can't see / ping the Fusion VM. The PC and Mac ( and VM's ) all sit behind my Broadband router working fine on the Internet. The VM is using NAT sharing the Mac's connection.

My Broadband Router gives the PC and Mac 192.168.0.* addreses.

I can't ping from the PC to the VM or vice versa ( The Mac & PC can ping / see each other and the VM can ping the Mac and vice versa ) .....any ideas?

Mac = 192.168.0.11 Subnet = 255.255.255.0 Default router = 192.168.0.1

PC = 192.168.0.12 Subnet = 255.255.255.0 Default router = 192.168.0.1

VM= 192.168.29.20 Subnet = 255.255.255.0 Default router = 192.168.29.2

Change the Virtual Machine's Network Adapter from the default of NAT to Bridged and then release/renew the IP Address in the Guest or simply reboot the Virtual Machines after making the change. You can also toggle the Connected/Disconnected state of the Network Adapter after making the change and this will force a release/renew of the IP Address in the Guest too without having to reboot.
