Hi all.

Macbook pro running lion with oracle virtual box 4.1.xx

Can anyone help? I have a win 7 virtual box, and all works great with bridged mode ethernet, but when my mac is connected using wifi, and i tell virtual box to use the wifi connection bridged the windows 7 virtual box can't connect to it to get to the internet.

As i said, it works fine with normal wired connection to the macbook pro.

Ive tried promiscuous modes, and lots of other options, but nothing. the windows vm just can't connect.

any help would be appreciated !! :-)

I am having this same issue and I am not sure exactly what the problem is. My Wifi worked just last week through my VM, and after the update/new version, it quite working and I can't figure out exactly what the problem is. Any help would be awesome. Thanks. :D
