Hello,
Can you tell us which NIC type you added? vmxnet, e1000, etc.
Next can you tell us if the Edit Setting s within VMware vCenter for this VM show the NIC as connected?
Within the guest can you do 'ifconfig' and report the output. But it sounds like the NIC is not connected or you chose one with no driver. If you use vmxnet, you must install VMware tools or open-vm-tools.
Best regards,
