Host DNS error only when running VM's

Post by MannyC »

SO i have this problem with my VM's. They have been running fine but ever since the new update i've been getting DNS errors on my host machine while the VM's are running. The VM's work fine tho during this outage and have no issues with DNS. the host machine tracert shows that everything is being routed back to the the host ip address. VM's are in bridged mode. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

For the host and for the VMs, give the following info :
adapters IP config
DNS servers configured
ping to the nearest router and to the VMs

Also, for each VM, give the full config using vboxmanage showvminfo #vmname# --details
