Your linux host has no trouble connecting to the internet, right? Your setup is a little different than the machines I have used.
When you install VMWare the first time, there are several questions which affect the global settings for the host. These control the vmware services which start at bootup. It looks like you did setup for NAT, and it selected the 172.16.192.0 network to use as a virtual network. If you are still not able to connect to the internet through the virtual host, then the problem could be any of these:
1. Bad routing table. 2. Bad startup order for services (VMWare after DSL modem ppp??) 3. Improper firewall settings at linux host (virtual network blocked.) 4. Improper DNS configuration. 5. IP forwarding needs to be enabled. I think that this is required with virtual network (vmnetx).
Here are some things to check (in the same order as above): 1. route -n

2. Restart vmware services after DSL connection active. I am not running Fedora, so I don't know exactly where vmware installs its startup script, (look for the file vmware somewhere belowetc-rc.detc-rc.d-init.d-vmware ?).
3. iptables -L 4. catetc-resolv.conf
