Hello All,

I have noticed that I'm constantly losing internet access to VM's using NAT. One day they work and another they just don't. Also, if I make any network change from host, NAT, or anything else, I also lose access and can't get it back.

It seems Workstation has just gotten worse over the years, and it's starting to get very frustrating.

I'm using 17.5.2 build-23775571. 

I'm going to have to look for another product if I can't get this to work consistently.

Even if I make no changes at all and come back to VMware workstation hours later or the next day, all of my internet access once again is gone on all hosts. I can restart the VMware NAT service, and that still doesn't help.

I'm just down and have 

Help, ugh!!
