Hello, Can I connect to a VirtualBox session to a other wifi connection than that it relates to the host on which it runs virtuabox?
Example: (1) Host which runs virtualbox: wlan0 -> "ssid1"
(2) virtualbox session which runs under host (1) -> "ssid2"
thanks

Yes. But you need a second USB network adapter and assign this directly to the guest.

I mean native hardware. You know what i mean? An USB WLAN stick on the host, not used on the host, but used in the guest?!

Re: virtualbox and use another ssid wifi connection?
Can you connect to the two different ssid's on the host (at the same time)?
Same thing applies here. wifi is a one to one connection. If you want two valid network connections you need two separate connectors.
