From: Karl G on 12 Feb 2010 19:50 I got it working (partially) with the following configuration. VPC Network Settings - Wireless NIC Disabled all other network cards (LAN, IEEE, Loopback) except the wireless card. I can now browse using Internet Explorer to and from each host/vm I can not ping or map network drives which is a necessity. I even tried FTP as a backup and that does not work either. Permissions on the shares are set correctly and the firewalls on both host and VM are disabled. Any clues?

IIRC, there is a detailed help file in VPC for this. Of course this limits communicetion to between the guest and host only, no Internet access from the guests. -- Bo Berglund (Sweden)

Thanks Bo for responding and yes I have tried that with no luck. I am beginning to think there is a limitation to the Wireless Adapter as I D/L VNWare 7 and can't get the host/guest communication working there either with the exception of HTTP protocol.
