No Internet connection after upgrade in VMWare

[tennesseebrewer]

I have Ubuntu 10.04 running in VMWare Player. Unfortunately, Windows is the base operating system (cause my wife will not let me make the full switch yet), and when I play it, it cannot connect to the internet. Now, in Karmic, it had no problem connecting, but since the upgrade, it will not connect. Someone, please help! I really want to use this new version, but I can't without the internet. Thanks!

Can you provide the following information from the command line


lshw -C network

and


ifconfig

I solved the problem... it was not Ubuntu's settings, rather it was VMWare's settings. I needed to click "Enable Bridge" under network options. Thanks!
