Why did I loose connection to the internet on a Virtual Machine?

[headbanger2894]

Hello, a project that I'm doing has this as one of the tasks.

Implement the procedures required so that machine 1 and machine 2 can communicate statically with one another. Outline the TCP/IP settings to be used on each of the machines and set this machine up accordingly.

I followed this guide http://www.mcompute.co.uk/showthread.php?tid=210 but what has happened is that now the two machines can't connect to the internet. How can I fix this?

Here is a links to the ipconfig/ all on the XP virtual machine

the default gate way here is the same as on my actual working machine.

Hi headbanger,

Do you have the virtual adapter configured to "external network" "internal network" or "local only"??? Please access the virtual adapter settings from the vmware configuration for the virtual machine and verify if you have the NAT configured properly.

One thing I notice off the top is a configuration error with the IP address settings. Your Windows XP IP address looks to be in the 192.168.2.0 network range, but your default gateway is in a completely different network range, 192.168.1.0 To be able to reach your default gateway, you need to have your network IP address in the same network range as your default gateway.
