Help with networking

Post by adammw »

Hi,
I want to use Fiddler inside a windows guest virtualbox to debug web applications, however I can't get a networking setup that works.
Which type of networking should I be using if I need host to guest AND guest to internet connections?

I am using VirtualBox 3.2.12 on Linux x86_64

Thanks.

Use Bridged if there is a router in the network.
Or NAT with a second adapter set to host-only if there is no router.
The second is really preferred if this is on a laptop so you can actually work with the guest even if you do not have a network connected.
