Sorry for the tardy reply, been away for a while.
Unfortunately the answer is the same, though I can share some background as to why we do not provide support for VMware's driver. If it were truly Intel's driver we would have it available for download from our site.
However it is not an Intel driver. VMware takes our open source driver and modifies it specifically for their Operating System. It is VMware's driver, for their OS and available from their site.
I am aware that this is likely frustrating for you and others since it is Intel's hardware and a large percentage of the driver comes from our Open Source and while I empathize - it is truly a VMware piece of software that VMware is supposed to support.
If VMware needs assistance they will contact Intel and we will work directly with them.
I realize this does not help you directly or reduce your frustrations, however perhaps now you and others understand why Intel does not directly support the Network Drivers owned by VMware.
