Network NAT setting not working...

Post by alexsecret »

Hi all.

I installed VBox 4.3.10 on a Xubuntu 14.04 64-bit host. The newly created vm's that need an internet connection in order to do the OS installation cannot connect properly if the network setting is left in the NAT position. I must change it to bridged for the vm to be able to connect correctly. I was using 4.3.10 on Xubuntu 12.04 before I installed the new release (clean install) and it was working fine. Is this a known bug or something?

I don't know if installing the vm additions on the guest fixes the problem but no additions can be installed before the guest itself is installed.

Any suggestions please? :)
