Hello,


I'm using VirtualBox 4.2.6 with Windows 7 64bits in host and guest both and I'm trying to use a TP-Link Wifi USB adapter (TL-WN821N). I can install the drivers correctly, but the device don't work, the device manager shows the error code 10 - This device cannot start.

I have extension pack and guest additions installed, I have an usb filter for the wifi adapter and the usb 2.0 support active.


I try to reinstall everything, and it still not working.

any idea?

Best regards.

Better to install the WiFi adapter on the host, bridge to it from the guest.

Ok, thank you. But I don't want to have two internet connections in the host. :roll:
