You are going to have to provide us with the network settings of the guest if we are going to be able to help you. All of them.

Ok. That's not exactly what I meant. What I need is the settings for the guest in the VBox program. Where you set it all up.

hey,i fixed it myself. Changed the Network Adapter to PCnet-PCI II (NAT) and started WinXP on guest and tired url and i got the internet through wireless.
VBOX is really a great s/w and works amazing for multiple OS's. I really enjoyed working on this.
thanks for all. :D
