Yep - what's the result of 'route print' or 'netstat -r' there? Also, you need to make sure that there's no conflict (i.e. the 192.168.x.x range isn't routed elsewhere there). Also, when trying to sort it out, I'd try pinging from both sides. I assume that 'ping 192.168.80.1' works on the host machine, right (i.e. the virtual interface is up)? If so, would pinging 192.168.80.130 work from that side? Finally - not sure what you meant by the reference to the 'VPN network', but if your machine is connected to a VPN (external), you need to make sure that the VPN client isn't configured to disable all other connectivity.
