No internet access with bridged adapter
Posted: 1. Oct 2015, 19:09
Hi,
I have a Windows 7 64-bit host and a Windows 8.1 64-bit guest. With NAT selected as the network adapter everything works fine, and I can access the Internet with the guest, but with bridged adapter selected it doesn't work. I get the yellow triangle by the network icon and it says "no internet access" in the Network and Sharing Center in the guest. I'm new to VirtualBox, so is there anything in specific that I should be aware of when using bridged networking? Maybe something that needs to be configured in order for this to work? Any help would be appreciated.
