I was having this issue and solved it in a not-so-simple way.
I changed the virtual network adapter to host-only, set my wireless card with fixed lease and added a secondary gateway and IP poiting to my vmnet1 (host-only) interface.
my network is 192.168.1.x
my vmnet2 is 192.168.81.x
on my corporate networks i received dhcp lease
wrote the info about the lease on a notepad
copied it to my wireless interface as fixed lease
added a seconday ip (192.168.81.10) and gateway (192.168.81.1)
host started to ping vm, vm doesn't ping host but it is a firewall issue.
then it worked.
