Linux VM sharing internet connection with OS X Yosemite host

I am running OS X yosemite on my macbook pro retina,  but I have a ralink USB wifi antenna, which does not have a driver for OS X Yosemite (10.10).  Therefore I resort to connect the USB antenna to my macbook pro and let VMware Fusion to connect to the Linux VM.  In this way, the Linux VM now has internet access. 

 

However, how can I set up the host to VM network so that the OS X Yosemite host can get internet access from the Linux VM?

 

Currently inside the VM, I set eth0 to 192.168.2.2/24

 

At the VM network setting, I checked the "connect network adapter" box, and selected the bridged networking to "Thunderbolt Internet".

 

Then at the host "System Preferences, I set the address of the "Thunderbolt Internet" to 192.168.2.128/24 and router to 192.168.2.2

 

However, the thunderbolt ethernet interface refuses to be turned on (I haven't plugged anything in)

 

I tried the same for thunderbult bridge, but none worked and the host still does not have internet access.

 

What should I do?
