LogMeIn Hamachi should work for you and is free for personal use: https://secure.logmein.com/products/hamachi/features.aspx

You can also check out NeoRouter which has a free version, even for business use: http://www.neorouter.com/products.html I haven't used NeoRouter before, but i looks like a good product.

Im using vmware workstation,and running multiple hosts on the same network,by selecting the Bridge option for all the NIC's.
Also an important option is VMCI,which allows virtual machines to cummunicate with the host and other virtual machines,it's located in the virtual machine settings,Options tab,and the "Guest Isolation",worth checking out.
