My 2 cents here,
Unless you know a lot about port forwarding you should switch to Bridged mode to make this work for you.

[docmccoy]

And were is option for Bridged network? I can't find it

[Perryg]

Network settings in the VirtualBox program.
VM must be shutdown to change settings.

[vbox4me2]

Thats not going to work either if there is a lan problem, for the OP, check the VM for LAN devices and drivers, or change the NIC selection in the VM Properties inside VBox GUI. If you know what the VM see's you need to download its drivers.

[docmccoy]

I just added new usb device - Cable Modem of my provider, which is of course connected to PC through usb. So i'm expecting network will appear. But in the network settings of VirtualMachine when choose Bridged Adapter, i can also choose below between 4 options: eth1, pan0, virbr0, eth0. I know that eth0 - my Cable modem interface in the host (or Fedora 11). I assume, that eth1 - my LAN card interface, but i don't know exactly, and what is pan0 or virbr0 for me is unknown. Please, give me an advice what to choose: eth0 or eth1? I think pan0 and virbr are not for my case. On the other side in the VirtualMachine settings there are also NAT, Internal Network and Host-only adapter. Maybe they can help?

[vbox4me2]

eth0 would be the one, but... a cable modem is usually fixed for 1 machine/ip, bridge makes the vm act as a second machine and for that you need a router to issue ip's. NAT should work though.
