NAT isn't working: I can't reach anything from VM to outside

Post by reynierpm »

Hi there, I have W10 and I have installed latest VBox then I have created a CentOS 6.7 VM. All is good but I can't reach/ping anything from the CentOS VM. Attached is the VM configuration for Network. I have checked also everything at VM side (meaning in CentOS config) and eth0 is enabled and everything looks fine to me. I am using ESET Smart Security and I have disabled the Firewall (Windows firewall is managed through ESET SS) and the issue still. I have checked also VirtualBox Host-Only Network and hasn't available Internet connection? Why is that? Do I need to bridge this "virtual" network to the physic interface? What I am missing? Any advice?

Note: if you need any helpful info from me let me know

The host only adapter never has Internet access. Its sole purpose is to allow the host to communicate directly with vm guests.

The config of the ethernet NIC would have been more helpful.
