Running VMWare Fusion 5.0.2. All of my client machines use bridged networking set to the use the physical ethernet port (not autodetect). Randomly, networking stops working across all VM's simultaneously - if mulitiple VM's are running they all lose networking at the exact same time. Networking on the host machine never skips a beat.
In Fusion 4.x it looks like there was a way to restart Fusion's networking services from the Console. With 5.x, it looks like the only solution is to shut down all running VM's, quit Fusion, and then start it back up.
Questions:
What can I do to troubleshoot this?
Any thoughts as to what might be causing it?
Is there anyway to restart the network services in 5.x without quitting Fusion?
