Using Wireless for Bridge Adapter

Post by mike@atlas »

Hey Everyone,

I know I am new here, but I am trying install a small network in VM's. I have installed Windows Server 2008 Enterprise as my Domain Controller and I am going to install a few Windows 7 VMs. This is just for practice, to keep up my knowledge of these systems and how to maintain them. I am going to set up a domain, and all the stuff that goes with it like Active Directory, DHCP, DNS, ect. I just want to keep my skills up in this area. My only problem I have is that I want to use my wireless for internet connection for all the VMs. I have Server installed, But I see no Network Connections. I have configured VM Box Network connection to Bridge, and selected the wireless connection I see. But the main Problem is I see no network connections on my server. Is this imposable to do? I am using the latest version of VirtualBox 4.1.16. Thanks for helping.
