I'm sorry, my mom asked me not to speak with strangers, it might be dangerous. Go introduce yourself first.

^ this :)

and:

I don't understand your question. No you don't need to have a usb wireless card if you want to use LAN (wired). If you want to connect to a wireless lan you would need the above mentioned card. Please explain what you are trying to do but before you should follow the advice given by snayler :)

Cheers,
RBA

If you are running VMware on a host operating system, then you will have access to LAN if your host is connected to LAN as well.

You might have to change network settings from "Bridged" to "NAT" but it shouldn't really matter.

We will be able to help you more effectively if you can explain everything clearly.  Are you running VMware on another OS?  Are you trying to have VMware on same or different LAN from the guest OS etc.

Thanks

First off ^^ is not me.
Second off, dudes got it right. We need much more specific details than what you gave us, what are your current settings and what seems to be the problem? Do you have any internet access at all? Or is it just failing when your trying to use aircrack-ng(just an assumption here, please say im right lol)

Give some more details and we'll do what we can to help

@RBA and snayler, i feel like he posted a welcome thread ages ago...just not very active? CBA to check his profile though, so i could be wrong (sure as hell wouldn't be the first time ^_^ )

I'm sure you can do a bridge iface or internal NAT. At lest with virtualbox you can :) you might already have eth0 on the system, open a term and type "ifconfig -a" and look for eth0 if you see that all you need to do is bring it up and run dhclient "i think thats wat BT uses"

Your default setup for VMware should work, unless your using virtualbox? You said VMware in the first one...

Anywho, the default setup for VMware uses NAT which works just fine (tested and tried a ton of times with BTr3 by me, worked every time) you will not however be able to use any of the wireless exploit tools from within it unless you buy a USB dongle.
If its not working you might want to try re-installing it with the defaults, or at least make sure it's configured to use NAT. If the VMware machien is setup properly, then try pinging the IP of your host machine from within it, see what happens. It could be that your /etc/hosts is misconfigured (though id rate this as least likely)

Above all else, make sure it's VMware and not VB (virtualbox). Everytime i do an install on VB the networking NEVER works, after the last time i spent 2 weeks on it and getting nowhere i swapped to VMware and havent had a problem since. Which sucks cause i don't support the companies philosphy as much (pay for our stuff, except our minimal VMware player) as i do VirtualBox (free to use, period) but it works a helluva lot better  :'(
