Just to clarify, 'Cable Connected' is a setting selection (checkbox). &nbsp;Is &quot;No Cable Available&quot; the error you received?

I run virtuals all day on my laptop (wireless connectivity). &nbsp;I use the NAT - Cable Connected setting for all of my virtuals with no issues to date (knock on wood)!<br />

NAT - Cable Connected is normally provided by default.<br />

I've install Oracle virtualbox on windows 7.  Trying to get network working.  Can network (wireless) from the windows end but virtual box can't see outside.   What do i need to do?

VirtualBox Networking

Virtualization is the act of creating a virtual (rather than actual) version of something, including (but not limited to) a virtual computer hardware platform, operating system (OS), storage device, or computer network resources. Virtualization is usually the creation of a system that executes separate from the underlying hardware resources, or the creation of an entire desktop for systems located elsewhere, similar to thin clients.
