I can't try with bridged networking yet. My current configuration requires a proxy server login whenever you are on a wireless net. This of course means that the guests can not be exposed directly to the network. In a couple of weeks I should be able to move and try another configuration. What I know so far is that if you are using HOST-ONLY networking the gigabit adapters work flawlessly they get Ip addresses and all is well with the HOST-ONLY world. the minute I have to switch to NAT, its broke and the guest os cant even get a dhcp address. switch to pcinet III adapter and it works. _______________________________________________ vbox-users mailing list vbox-users@virtualbox.org http://vbox.innotek.de/mailman/listinfo/vbox-users
