He,

since i have my new notebook with win 8.1 pro i cannot brigde my internal umts card to the vbox.
On XP under network adapter menu i was posible to choose my internal umts card. But now i see no entry for the adapter.
Was there an change in Vbox 4.3.2 or is this not possible anymore in Win 8 ?

I know that it works when im using NAT but i like to go online with umts .
I already tried to use ICS on the umts connection with share to the host-only-adapter, but that dont work.
Unter properties no VirualBox Bridged Networking Driver is installed for the umts card.

Is there any possibility to use the umts card without NAT.

OS: Windows 8.1 Pro
Modem: Serria Wireless LTE/UMTS MC 7710

Best Regards

If it's not a real NIC then you can't bridge to it. You can use NAT, or you can try configuring a proxy server - but that would require networking knowledge. If the card is seen by the host as a USB device then it's possible that the guest can use it directly, though that would rob the host of its internet connection - if the host was using the card.

Hey,

so i get the card routed via usb to the guest host. I can see the modem in lsus and usb-devices:

But usb-devices shows me an error:

After search on the system for the folder **/1-1/1-*:..., i found it under /sys/bus/usb/devices/usb1 but no in /sys/bus/usb/devices/usb1/1-1.

Is there someting wrong with the kernel modul or with the driver?

Guest host? You are discussing either the host or the guest, please be clear which.

As to the error, I assume you need to install device drivers inside the guest.

I´d like to use the card inside the guest.
Vbox Guest drivers and kernel modul qmi_wwan are installed.
