Error After Changing Network Hardware - VERR_INTNET_FLT_IF_N

Post by reinaldocfilho »

After changing my LAN to WLAN, I tried to start any Ubuntu Server Guest in VirtualBox and it's appearing this error:

Failed to open/create the internal network
'HostInterfaceNetworking-TP-LINK Wireless USB Adapter'
(VERR_INTNET_FLT_IF_NOT_FOUND VIRTUALBOX).

Failed to attach the network LUN
(VERR_INTNET_FLT_IF_NOT_FOUND VIRTUALBOX).

Details:

Código de Resultado:
E_FAIL (0x80004005)
Componente:
Console
Interface:
IConsole {8ab7c520-2442-4b66-8d74-4ff1e195d2b6}

Now I can't boot into any Virtual Box Ubuntu Server and my PC is in a location that the internet/lan is only reachable via Wireless, there's any workaround/fix for this issue?

Host System: Windows 8.1 PRO X64
Old Lan: Realtek (I forgot the exact name)
New Lan: TP-Link Wireless USB Adapter

Thanks in advance and sorry for my english.

Your English seems quite understandable to me, Reinaldo. I'd guess that the settings for your guests are pointing to the old card, which isn't there anymore. Or Virtualbox needs to be reinstalled, to get the network plug-ins to attach to the new card. (Just my guess, others will know better.)

You beat me to the second Scott, I was about to make the same prediction, that the bridged filter driver attached by VBox to the network adapters, was not attached to the USB WiFi adapter, because it was not there during VBox installation. I simply wanted to add a suggestion to Reinaldo, that if he doesn't really need the bridged networking, having it set to NAT in the VM settings would not present the problem as well...
Do NOT send me Personal Messages (PMs) for troubleshooting, they are simply deleted.

If you obfuscate any information requested, I will obfuscate my response. These are virtual UUIDs, not real ones.

You guys are amazing, replied with few minutes.

EDIT: Tried to uninstall and install (reinstall) but unfortunately the same issue still happening.
