I have installed build 7989 on VirtualBox 4.0.8 r71778, installation went fine but, having trouble getting the internet connection to work.
First time using VB.
Wireless router, Linksys WRT54G2, host computer is using cable.
Rig specs listed below.
Tried:
PCnet-Fast III (Am79C973), Cable connected selected.
Host Only Adapter, with same as above.
and NAT, with same as above.
None will let me connect to the router.
Name and password have been confirmed on another computer.
A search gave me several things to try but no success yet, also have read sections of the VB manual.
Anyone have any suggestions that I can try?
Thanks
EDIT: Solved
Bridged Adapter with Intel PRO/1000 MT Desktop works.
