Ping not working at my debian in vm


Hi I have this weird problem with ping reply not working in my Debian 3.2.57-3+deb7u1 system. It's a virtual machine (VMware) and it did work there at first. I'm not sure what caused it to stop working now, I haven't changed anything, but there was couple of updates to the system and VMware.

I have tried to turn off firewalls in main system but nothing helped, no iptables or any other fw in vm system set either.

All other network stuff works fine though.

But if I try to ping it always freezes at this:
Code:
ping google.com
PING google.com (62.168.125.54) 56(84) bytes of data.
Nothing else. If I kill it I get:
Code:
--- google.com ping statistics ---
62 packets transmitted, 0 received, 100% packet loss, time 61036ms
What could be the problem here?

Is this ESXi, or VMware desktop?

Please describe your networking settings from the hypervisor side.

Rather a useless test if every other network feature is OK.

Since ping is icmp, look at that.

Post how virtual network is connected to host.

It's usual NAT network setting in VMware.

I have discovered it stopped working after I installed wireless USB adapter which I use in AP mode.

When I activate bridge setting to share my computers connection (screenshot attached), ping replies stop coming to my VMs, if I switch it off it's working again.

No idea how to go about fixing it..
