networkmanager thinks it activated the device but i can not even ping the gateway! what could be the problem here?

================================================
It appears there is a VMWare interface running vmnet1. My suggestion is to take down the vmnet1 interface so that your routing table looks like and restarting NM

If your pings now work, you have a starting point for diagnosis. I do not believe that NM can deal with the VMWare interface vmnet1.
