Having trouble pinging from VMware workstation to host and vice versa

Hi, I am trying to ping between my host windows PC and guest windows VM. At the moment I have my network set upto bridging mode where it is bridged to my laptops inbuilt WiFi adapter. So far I am able to ping the home router, reach the internet and also ping another PC connected to my home router after disabling its firewall. I have disabled the firewalls in both the VM and the host and they still cannot seem to be able to ping each other. The host can also ping the router, ping the other PC in the network and access the internet.

 

My router IP: 192.168.1.1

IP of the VM: 192.168.1.131

IP of the host: 192.168.1.5

IP of the other PC on the network: 192.168.1.4

 

Can anyone please suggest how I could achieve this.

Thanks.
