I also tried creating a host-only adapter as well.Ĭan anyone point me in the right direction on getting this to work? Typically in the past setting the network adapter to bridge has always been the answer but this is my first experience in attempting to work with Virtualbox in an OS X environment. I've tried switching to NAT since I've read that wireless doesn't always work with bridge mode and still am not having any luck. Here are my current network adapter settings: When the WiFi went down, I tried to hook up my adapter to use the ethernet and when I tried to access it via System Preferences, I got the following message.

I have a 2018 MacBook Pro and a Belkin USB-C to GigaEthernet Connector. Each time the network settings in my guest VM show cable disconnected and has no IP address. Apple USB Ethernet Adapter has a self-assigned IP address and will not be able to connect to the Internet. I've tried a number of different network adapter settings to no avail. The Virtualbox host machine is connected to the internet via WiFi but I am unable to get the internet working within my Mojave VM.

I am running Virtualbox on Big Sur and have a VM within Virtualbox created running Mojave.
