Problem

I am running a Ubuntu Linux VM using VMware Player on a Windows 7 host. I don't want to connect directly to the network or use NAT; I need host-only networking but also need Internet access. How can I do this?

Fix for: VMware host-only networking Internet access

Low Risk

At the end of the day you will have to either use some form of NAT or Bridge. If you can't/don't want to let VMWare do it for you, you can have windows do it by enabling Internet Connection Sharing (ICS) on the host's connection.
