I've got virtualbox 2.2.0 running on a Windows 7 64bit host. I'm trying to get internet through a Windows XP Professional 32bit Korean guest. I'd gladly do without the guest, but I've got this weird problem with a program. This program is a Korean program, but the fonts come up as garbage. I've had similar problems before. However, setting the non-unicode to Korean doesn't fix the problem for this program. It seems that it needs to actually be running in a Korean version of Windows to show Korean fonts!

Anyhow, I've got the Korean Windows XP up and running as a guest in virtualbox, but now I've got no internet, which the program needs to download the appropriate drivers for my new phone. The network is set to NAT.

Any ideas about how I can go about getting internet for the guest?

If I use the Repair option through internet explorer in a guest running through Virtual PC, the internet works. Problem there is that Virtual PC doesn't support USB which I need for my phone. This same repair option doesn't seem to be working in Virtualbox.

For USB to work you need the PUEL version of VBox.
The easiest way to have guest to host communications as well as the Internet you should use the Bridged mode.

There seems to be some issues with USB in VBox 2.2, so if you have problems you will need to revert to VBox 2.14 and instead of Bridged select Hosted Interface.
