ONLY IN ADAPTER 1, unselect all the other adapter only 1. Then select attach to NAT, open advance settings and your adpater Type should be the FIRST or SECOND. IT WORKED FOR ME. THIS IS FOR MAC ONLY, and windows XP on virtualbox problem.

What worked for me is going to the Network Adapter settings and in Adapter 1, unselect then select «Cable Connected.» For some reason, that allowed the internet in Windows 7 to suddenly connect.

OS X is not supported under VirtualBox by Oracle or Apple. While certain aspects of it can be made to work, I have not seen any support for wireless adapters.

Your best bet is to just configure the VirtualBox guest settings to use NAT networking on the virtual network adapter and let it manage the connections.

@ goyuix thanks for ur reply.. i did «NAT» in adapter 1 . and bridge in adapter 2 . moreover i attached my wireless adapter (USB) in virtualbox . but no result . can u seggest me some other suggestion plzzz

This issue is essentially due to a the allocation of the same IP addresses to both the Host WiFi adapter (by the wifi router’s DHCP server) and the Guest interface (by the VirtualBox DHCP server under Nat networking).

From the VirtualBox documentation about the integrated DHCP server Fine-tuning the VirtualBox NAT engine:

In NAT mode, the guest network interface is assigned to the IPv4 range 10.0.x.0/24 by default where x corresponds to the instance of the NAT interface +2. So x is 2 when there is only one NAT instance active. In that case the guest is assigned to the address 10.0.2.15, the gateway is set to 10.0.2.2 and the name server can be found at 10.0.2.3. 

Looking at your host’s WiFi adapter’s IP address you will find that the address assigned to it is from the 10.0.2.0/24 network range as well.

This is the reason for the issue as now the Nat driver for VirtualBox is confused by the fact that the host and guest addresses are from the same subnet.

To fix this you can change the subnet served out by the VirtualBox DHCP server using the VBoxManage command(while the VM is powered down):

Vboxmanage modifyvm VMName --natnet1 "192.168/16"

VirtualBox: Как подключиться к Интернету через Wi-Fi на Mac?

Это те настройки, которые я вижу в Интернете как правильные, но я все еще не могу ничего пинговать.

На моем Mac у меня есть общий доступ к Интернету через Ethernet (не уверен, что это имеет значение).

Когда я запускаю свою WinXP VM, он просит меня установить аппаратное обеспечение, к которому у меня нет драйверов. Нужно ли устанавливать какие-либо драйверы для карт Ethernet, чтобы интернет работал?

5 ответов 5

Так что проблема была в том, что драйвер не был установлен. Однако в загруженном образе драйвер был смонтирован на отдельном диске (для сетевой карты Intel Pro 1000/ MT). Я установил это, и это работало, понравилось очарование!

Я предполагаю, что если ваше изображение не поставляется с драйвером, вы можете загрузить его снова.

В моем Windows ISO-образе, который я скачал, не был установлен контроллер XP. Я наконец-то понял. Я загрузил файл с: https://downloadcenter.intel.com/detail_desc.aspx?agr=Y&DwnldID=18717, затем перенес его в VirtualBox и установил. После установки все заработало отлично.

Поэтому я просто изменил настройки на NAT и Intel 1000 MT Desktop. Это работает для меня.

Скриншот MacBook Pro Settigns на Эль-Капитан:

Если вы не установили драйверы устройства VirtualBox Ethernet на гостевой компьютер, установка XP не сможет использовать сеть. Установите необходимые драйверы устройств в соответствии с документацией VirtualBox (возможно, с помощью команды меню «Install VirtualBox Additions» или аналогичной), и все будет хорошо.

Вам не нужно возиться с какими-либо настройками, чтобы ваше интернет-соединение работало. Если он работает на вашей операционной системе (Mac), он будет работать на вашей гостевой ОС (Win XP).

Насколько я понимаю, VirtualBox должен обрабатывать подключение к Интернету вашего хоста (в вашем случае wifi) автоматически. Подключение к Интернету отображается как проводное сетевое подключение в вашем госте (Win XP) независимо от того, какой тип подключения к Ethernet у вашего хоста (Mac).

VirtualBox CentOs 7 Bridge Network over Wi-Fi on Mac Os

Recently I wanted to create a Centos 7 Virtual machine on my Macbook Air (OS El Capitain – 10.11.3), as usual I downloaded an Iso from the net (The minimal Centos 7 Iso Installation).

And as I will want to access my Virtual machine from other computers I wanted to bridge the network.

But I don’t know why I can’t retrieve an IP address from my DHCP Server, so I defined a static IP Address and the network worked fine.

Define the Bridge Adapter in Virtual Box

First in the configuration of the virtual machine on VirtualBox, I attached a network card bridged on the Wi-Fi (en0: Wi-Fi (Airport)).

Define Static Ip Address in Centos 7

First you need to find the name of the interface bridged, so in the virtual machine simply execute the command :

You should obtain something like this :

1: lo: mtu 65536 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN link/loopback 00:00:00:00:00:00 brd 00:00:00:00:00:00 inet 127.0.0.1/8 scope host lo valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever inet6 ::1/128 scope host valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever 2: enp0s3: mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast state UP qlen 1000

The name enp0s3 is what we are looking for.

So now you can edit the file : /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-enp0s3

 TYPE="Ethernet" BOOTPROTO="static" IPADDR=192.168.1.211 NETMASK=255.255.255.0 DEFROUTE="yes" PEERDNS="yes" PEERROUTES="yes" IPV4_FAILURE_FATAL="no" IPV6INIT="yes" IPV6_AUTOCONF="yes" IPV6_DEFROUTE="yes" IPV6_PEERDNS="yes" IPV6_PEERROUTES="yes" IPV6_FAILURE_FATAL="no" NAME="enp0s3" UUID="2191ba05-10f0-4ac2-a0d5-2b060003cc7b" DEVICE="enp0s3" ONBOOT="yes"

1. static mean that you want to set the Ip address manually
2. This is the IP Address you want for your virtual machine, in my case it is : 192.168.1.211
3. The netmask depends on your network setting, usually you can set the same of your host computer
4. Be sure to have the ONBOOT option set to yes for starting the network on virtual machine boot.

And finally you need to active the network by editing the file :

# Created by anaconda NETWORKING=yes HOSTNAME=centos1 GATEWAY=192.168.1.1

And now you can restart the network :

Or reboot your virtual machine.

And Test ping pinging some ip (192.168.1.1 / 8.8.8.8)/ domain names : (www.google.com).

And now you can access to your virtual machine.

I don’t know why i can’t obtain an IP address from my DHCP using bridged networking on Wi-Fi, but the Static IP is a satisfying workaround for me.

How to bridge vboxnet with Wi-Fi on OS X 10.10 «Yosemite»

I am trying to bridge two interfaces on OS X 10.10 «Yosemite» but somehow this does not seem to work for virtual interfaces: The network on Virtualbox goes over «Host Only Network» Is there a way to overcome this? I want to bridge 192.168.56.1 with the Wi-Fi in order to make my virtual machines visible to other computers on the internet.

1 Answer 1

VirtualBox and OS X provide several (no-NAT) methods to connect your VM:

1. The VirtualBox «Bridged Adapter»:

First remove bridge1 in Terminal and use a «Bridged Adapter» instead of vboxnet0 in your VM. Go to the Network settings of the respective VM -> Adapter1 -> attached to: and change the type from whatever it is now to «Bridged Adapter» then choose your Wi-Fi interface:

The VM’s en0 attached to the bridged adapter has to be configured with a unique IP in the same network range as the hosts interface IP.

• My hosts en1 config: network: 192.168.1.0/24 IP: 192.168.1.2 gateway: 192.168.1.1
• The VM’s eth0 config: network: 192.168.1.0/24 IP: a free and unique IP-address in the range 192.168.1.3-192.168.1.254 gateway: 192.168.1.1

If you want to make the VM accessible to other computers in the WAN (internet) (e.g. a web-server) you have to forward the respective ports in the router to the VM’s IP. The VM can be accessed by all other computers in the same network (192.168.1.0/24) in your LAN directly.

Finally it looks like this:

WAN Router/Switch (& port fw to VM) Mac VM 192.168.1.1 192.168.1.2 192.168.1.130 ¦ ¦ other Mac(s) 192.168.1.3|4|5. 

2. The OS X bridge

I assume en1 is your Wi-Fi interface and eth0 is the first adapter in your (Linux-)VM. Check this with ifconfig on your VM-host. Please adapt the commands and change the interfaces below if necessary.

If you don’t want to use «Bridged Adapter» but vboxnet0 do the following after starting VirtualBox:

Attach the VM adapter 1 to the «Host-only Adapter» and the «Name» vboxnet0.

On the host in Terminal enter:

sudo sysctl -w net.inet.ip.forwarding=1 sudo ifconfig bridge1 destroy #if bridge1 still exists sudo ifconfig en1 down sudo ifconfig vboxnet0 down sudo ifconfig bridge1 create sudo ifconfig bridge1 addm vboxnet0 addm en1 sudo ifconfig bridge1 192.168.1.2 netmask 255.255.255.0 up 

In the VM (Linux) you have to configure an IP-address and a default route:

sudo ipconfig eth0 192.168.56.101 netmask 255.255.255.0 arp sudo route add default gw 192.168.56.1 

A configured «Network Manager» might interfere with those settings.

On the various Macs in your network you have to configure an additional static route:

sudo route -n add -net 192.168.56.0/24 192.168.1.2 

On the router your have to forward ports to the VM and add a static route to 192.168.56.0/24 to make the VM accessible to other computers in the WAN (internet).

Finally it looks like this:

WAN Router/Switch (& port fw to VM & static route to 192.168.56.0/24) Mac VM 192.168.1.1 192.168.1.2|192.168.56.1 192.168.56.101 (& default gw or static route to 192.168.1.0/24) ¦ ¦ other Mac(s) 192.168.1.3|4|5. (& static route to 192.168.56.0/24) 

The bridge and the various routes (except those on the router and the default gateway of the VM) don’t survive a reboot.

To remove bridge1 on the host do the following:

sudo ifconfig bridge1 down sudo ifconfig bridge1 deletem en1 deletem vboxnet0 sudo ifconfig bridge1 destroy 

To disable forwarding on the host do the following:

sudo sysctl -w net.inet.ip.forwarding=0 

To remove static routes on the Mac enter:

sudo route -n delete -net 192.168.56.0/24 192.168.1.2 

Remove the static route on the Router.

As a result one might say it’s much easier and much more comfortable to use method 1.
