Network problem (network unit disconnected)

Post by Pedroestate »

Hi all,
my problem with VirtualBox 4.3.22 with Guest Addition 4.3.22 running on OSX Mavericks is with the network unit... they are full accessible but i see a X in network units!

i can copy, cut, paste, move file between the units and the desktop but some software don't running properly because don't read the units with a X (network disconnected) and the browsing of the network is not possible.

i try to change de network virtualbox settings from NAT to BRIDGE ma no good result at the moment....

Any suggestion to solve the problem???

HELP!!!

Thanks in advance :-)

Pedro

Hello,

Recently updated VirtualBox.
Same problem... I can access shared folders via the network volumes : there is a red cross on the icon... and they are labelled "network drive disconnected"
VirtualBox is running on Yosemite.

Any suggestions ?
Thanks in advance
Best regards
