I am not into computer network and I have the following problem finding my router IP address.

I have a Windows 8 PC on on which it is installed VmWare Workstation that virtualizes Linux Ubuntu.

The network adapter settings of this Virtual Machine is setted as NAT.

Now my problem is that if in the Windows 8 DOS shell I perform the ifconfig statment I obtain

C:\Users\Andrea>ipconfig

So, looking at the previous output it appear clear that the default gateway (my router) is: 192.168.1.1, infact if I open it into a browser it apear to me the login mask to enter in the router settings....

Ok, if now I open the virtualized Ubuntu shell and perform the route command I obtain this output:

andrea@andrea-virtual-machine:~$ route
Tabella di routing IP del kernel
Destination     Gateway         Genmask         Flags Metric Ref    Use Iface
default         192.168.15.2    0.0.0.0         UG    0      0        0 eth0
link-local      *               255.255.0.0     U     1000   0        0 eth0
192.168.15.0    *               255.255.255.0   U     1      0        0 eth0

So, here it say to me that the default gateway is 192.168.15.2 (that is not my router ip address), why?

My idea is that it could depend by the NAT. Because my Windows system is connected using the wireless but in the virtualized Ubuntu I see that I am connected to a "wired network".

So I think that the NAT virtualize a network adapter (or something like this) and that 192.168.15.2 could be the ip address of this network adapter...

But it seems strange to me because, as you can see in the previous ipconfig output the VmWare network adapter addresses are: 192.168.129.1 and 192.168.15.1.

So I have also 2 others doubts:

1) What device represents the 192.168.15.2 ip address that the virtualized Ubuntu see as Default gateway but that is not my router?

2) What exactly do the two VmWare network adapter that I have configured into my Windows 8 system?

There is a way to discover my router ip from the virtualized Ubuntu system ?

Tnx
