I have already seen a lot of questions similar to this one, but none of their solutions worked for me.
My issue is very similar to this.
I bought a new laptop, Lenovo Yoga 15 with Windows 8.1, and have been running VMware with one guest, Ubuntu 14, for a few days with no problem. Then one day after starting it up (out of sleep mode) Windows shows as connected to the VMware network, and the internet does not work. I disabled the adapter it was connected to and everything worked fine again.
Next time I started my computer up, it was the same problem, but this time disabling the adapter did not fix it. When I disabled all the adapters Windows shows the "connections available" icon, but when I try to connect to my home wifi all it says is "Can't connect to the network". I've reset the router, same problem, but I am able to connect to my phone's hotspot wifi network.
I've uninstalled VMware, reinstalled it, did a repair, nothing. I've uninstalled and reinstalled all the network adapters under Device Manager, still nothing.
Does anyone have a solution for this?
