[arch-general] problem while bridging network

[Patrick Baumgart]

I think there is no need to bridge your network inside your machine.
Use the outwards interface (eth0) in your settings.
Give in windows a "fresh" IP for your Virtualbox.
Works fin on my side.

I have all Linux "normal" built: wlan0 to get to the router. (example
192.168.5.1, Router: 192.168.5.100)
Inside Virtualbox I set the Adapter to use wlan0 as Bridged Network.
And inside Windows I use a static IP to use in my network (example
192.168.5.2) or use dhcp.
