asked on

VirtualBox machine has different Default Gateway

I have Windows 8.1 as my host machine and
under virtual box  I am trying to run Windows 7.

But the issue is from Windows 7 I am not able to access my host on network.
I came to know that the network settings are different on Windows 7 like Default Gateway.

I need to know what settings I need to do so that I can access my host machine from my Virtual box windows 7.

you mean to say that from windows 7 machine you are not able to access windows 8 host machine? or you are not able to access other machine which are in the network ?

by default when you create Virtual machine in virtual box it use NAT network in that vm will be communicated with host machine.

I don't have any other machine on the network.
