I can ping vmnet1 but not "xe0" or the "default gateway". arp -a does nothing. sudo route add 192.168.254.254 default does nothing either. I have seen this. http://www.vmware.com/support/reference/linux/networking_linux.html#changemac And edited /etc/vmware/config to have ethernet0.address = 00:50:56:00:00:01 I think the issue is to do with not finding a MAC address for xe0 because vmware2 has "clashed?" somehow. To sum up, vmware no longer runs and has taken apart my networking. Very grateful for advice.
