[Solved] Cannot see network printers

[dougham]

I have a Desktop running XP with 2 printers attached.

I have a notebook running Vista Ultimate which shares the printers and some folder on the desktop.
I have installed Virtualbox on the Vista and then installed Windows 7 final RC.
I can share folders which are on the Vista, the host, but I cannot see any other PCs on the network.
I have the adapter set to NAT and I can use the INternet.
If I set the adapter to bridged as my searching of Google seems to imply, I have no Internet and no network at all.
How can I set Virtualbox up so that I can print to the desktop printers from Win7?

If you don't have network connectivity when you set it to bridged, you most likely selected the wrong interface to use. Selecting a wired NIC while connecting to the network using wireless will of course not work. Also check your router security methods, it might need the VM MAC address in it's allow table, if you use MAC filtering.

Thanks Sasquatch. That was the problem I use wifi but the LAN NIC was being used.
