You need to either bridge your host interface or route through your host.
When you say you set up your guest on another IP, is that a different host on the same subnet? Or a completely different subnet.
If same subnet, bridge your host.
If different subnets you host needs to route.
Not sure how to do this on windows host, but hopefully it will point you to the proper place in the documentation.
