Ubuntu 18.04 internet connection not working (using VMWare Fusion)
Not sure what happened. Yesterday everything worked, today I booted up my VMware and it seems Ubuntu doesn't have an internet connection at all.
Tried all the different options (besides NAT that I normally use) like Bridged and Host-Only but it didn't help. Tried restarting my network via terminal etc. Under Ubuntu's internet settings it just shows that no Wi-Fi adapter is found.
Not sure what happened overnight, maybe some update that got installed? I did accidentally turn off the host computer before I could correctly shut down Ubuntu's VMware session but I doubt that did anything. Windows 7 that is also running on VMware on the other hand works perfectly.
How to proceed? Thanks!
UPDATE: Followed this https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1400504 and got it working :)

Got it working by browsing through multiple threads.
First check if your network is disabled by using the following cmd in terminal:
sudo lshw -C network
If it shows disabled after the name of your adapter ( note down the logical name for later use)
*-network DISABLED
description: Ethernet interface
product: 82545EM Gigabit Ethernet Controller (Copper)
vendor: Intel Corporation
physical id: 1
bus info: pci@0000:02:01.0
logical name: ens33
All we need to do is enable the adapter, so lets get started.
open up your interfaces file by using the following cmd:
sudo gedit /etc/network/interfaces
My file had the following data written:
auto lo
iface lo loopback
But the logical name of my NIC was ens33 ( not lo), so i changed it to read the following and saved the file.
auto ens33
iface ens33 inet dhcp
Now time to restart the networking service .
sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart
check if network is back up, it shouldn't have that disabled tag anymore.
sudo lshw -C network
Enjoy your internet :)
