I don't know if version 3 behaves the same way, but with 4 I had to change from using the VMXNET3 NIC to VMXNET2 Enhanced or Flexible because Windows somehow interprets the VMXNET3 NIC as a WIRELESS NIC. One of the checks Lab Mgr 4 does before installation is making sure that you don't have only a wireless NIC installed. Lab Manager 4 did this to me a TON when I was deploying it recently.
