Hello everyone.
I have to run some test on my university(network classes/wireles network security). I cant handle with this problem - i cant share my wireless PCI adapter in VirtualBox.
I installed one of Linux distro in VirtualBox and i cant find any wireless networks becouse system doesnt see my wireless pci adapter. (When im starting system on 'LiveCD' it working. wireless pci adapter is visable)
Is there any solution?

Re: How to share wireless PCI adapter
You connect to the network on the host and use NAT on the guest/s. Only way to connect a wireless adapter direct to the guest is if it is a USB adapter.
While using wireless on the host the guest will see a wired connection.
