I installed VMWare Workstation pro 17.0.0 (build-20800274) on Ubuntu 22.04 (5.19.0-38-generic). However, I can't access the internet from the guest machine. I searched the internet and tried some resolutions (e.g. https://communities.vmware.com/t5/VMware-Workstation-Pro/Virtual-ethernet-failed/td-p/2906720). But they don't seem to work. For example, I tried to install some patch and compile modules.
git clone https://github.com/mkubecek/vmware-host-modules
git checkout workstation-17.0.0
sudo make
sudo make install
Then I compile the modules.
sudo vmware-modconfig --console --install-all
However, I got the following messages.
[AppLoader] GLib does not have GSettings support.

I reinstall the VMware workstation pro and the modules several times. But I cannot make it work.
My Ubuntu host can access the Internet. I tried the command sudo service vmware-networks restart and got the following error.
Failed to restart vmware-networks.service: Unit vmware-networks.service not found.
I also run the command ifconfig -a. There are no something like vmnet1 and vmnet8.
