Don't you have a wifi router?

Why resort to a Windows XP virtual machine that's almost 20 years old running ICS in VMware on Windows 10 with a wifi adapter?

Which also requires you have a wifi adapter attaches to the VM?

Modem ? Smatphone wifi? Windows XP wifi & WIndows 10 wifi?

Why does this has anything to do with smartphone?

List all the equipments (modem or router model, wifi adapters, on which machine, real &VM) and how you want to connect them.

Like

device a -- device b -- device c.

Your Win10 machine does have wired & wireless adapters, right?

first of all i use my phone for getting wifi on my computer that sucks cause it disconnects like every 30mins
i buy a cheap wifi adapter for fixing that
it results it dosent work on windows 10
So i make a VM with windows xp and it works
so i want to share my GUEST internet to my HOST
i have made all i read from putting the host only and ip adress
but when i try it never connects
(Adapter Dell Wireless 1450 Chispet ISL3887 and no the p54 driver didnt work too)

You still didn't answer the question clearly enough.

So how do you get online? Using smartphone's data service? Turn on smartphone's hotspot feature so Windows XP VM with Dell 1450 wifi adapter attached can connect?

Then you want to use XP's ICS feature so Windows 10 host can get online?

You should use bridged network (wired ethernet in VM bridged to host's wired adapter), host adapter needs to connect to a physical switch.

Host only does not work.
