Bridged adapter can't ping gateway

Post by s0lid »

Hi,

Im running Virtual Box 4.2.12 r84980 on Mac OS X 10.8.3. I installed Debian 6 as VM in virtualbox, everythings works fine when my network is on NAT mode, but when i set it to bridged adapter mode it can ping and access all IP in the network except the gateway ip(192.168.1.1) hence, i can't use the internet. i tried to remove the gateway, but still the same, i tried to use static IP same thing.

Here's a screenshot of my network settings in virtual box.

Then most likely your issue is with your gateway or guest config, not with Virtualbox, else you wouldn't be able to ping anything.
