Bridging problem on VMware with Windows 7

I was using BWM on windows XP hosted on VMware and made BWM at bridge mode.. Did this setup for years and all worked fine. Now i upgraded to windows 7 32bit with the same exact setup , but when i just want to bridge 2 interface I got this message from VMware:

(( Adapter 'Ethernet0' may not have network connectivity. MAC address 00:00:00:00:00:01 of adapter 'Ethernet0' is within the reserved address range or is in use by another virtual adapter on your system.
Adapter 'Ethernet0' may not have network connectivity.... ))

I got this message for both Ethernet0 and Ethernet1. There's no connectivity problem, everything works fine, but my DHCP starts to give IPs sooo slowly or not at all (Hanewin DHCP server installed on the same vmware machine of BWM).

From logs of managed CISCO switch connected to BWM machine i got these logs:

Looks like something wrong with Prodcast address 00:00:00:00:00:01 that VMware complaining about after bridging 2 interfaces by BWM. Please HELP

What does ipconfig /all launched in the VM show?

** see 2 attached screenshots

the setup is:
Cisco switch ---> virtual win7 BWM ---> virtual Linux Kerio control ---> ADSL routers

next post i'll send ipconfig /all from (windows XP) that is running stable with the same setup.

Here is virtual VM Windows XP ipconfig (working stable with bridging and same network setup):

** There is NO Tunnel adapter isatap at windows XP:

Description . . . . . . . . . . . : Microsoft ISATAP Adapter
Physical Address. . . . . . . . . : 00-00-00-00-00-00-00-E0

It is still hard to say what may be wrong. I would probably recommend to disable the tunnelling interfaces just in case, by launching in command prompt:

netsh interface ipv6 6to4 set state state=disabled undoonstop=disabled
netsh interface ipv6 isatap set state state=disabled
netsh interface teredo set state disabled

Then there may be a chance that VLAN-tagged traffic lands on Kerio or LAN interface. Try capturing a session with Wireshark on both interfaces and see if there is any 802.1Q entries like this. Bandwidth Manager wasn't too thoroughly tested with VLAN-tagged frames:



If frames are not VLAN-tagged, then use Wireshark to find out what frames are sent out with incorrect MAC address of 00:00:00:00:00:01. This may shed some light as to where they come from, but I have to admit it's not an easy issue to solve. The easiest way might be just to keep running everything on Windows XP.
