How to enable Wi-Fi on Android 3.2 VirtualBox

Solved

I set up my connection in the virtual machine settings.

Then I restarted it and went into the Wi-Fi settings because I saw "No connection" in the notifications at the top, and that’s when I saw an error under Wi-Fi. So if someone knows how to activate the internet on it, it would help me

Thank you! :-)

P.S. (don't pay attention to the notifications at the bottom because I was just having fun sending text messages, but I'm not talking about that)

And for the theme, I don't know how to set it, but I'm sorry and is what I'm saying understandable?

What version of VirtualBox are you using?

What ISO for the installation of Android? Give me a link so I can try the same one.

Same here, impossible to connect with this version of Android under VBox while it works perfectly with a version 4.xx

(This iso seems dedicated to Asus hardware and may be looking for a specific network card)

In the end, I managed to do it by disabling the network cards in the virtual machine configuration and plugging in a USB Wifi stick (what I told you at 8:39 AM on July 1st)

And now, it's real Wifi, I can choose my network

Otherwise, I'll keep you updated; I'll try with others, and I suggest you do the same.

Goodbye

P.S: The eeepc version is damaged (according to VirtualBox).

Hello,
the wifi is only available if you have an activated wifi card on your virtual machine.

Hi

You don't have Wi-Fi in the virtual network settings of VirtualBox even if you have a physical Wi-Fi card on your host machine.

It's always an Ethernet network card that is emulated.

With a Windows or Linux VM, you can have Wi-Fi with a USB Wi-Fi key.

Under Android, since we don't have access to the OS, I don't see how to manage it unless it's automatically recognized?

Okay, because on another virtual box it connected by itself via ethernet and I can go online, but since this one is on Android 1.6, I can't do much

Thanks for the link, but is there the same one on 3.2? Because I’m more comfortable with that, even if I’m happy and I thank you for the link

Thanks :-)

I just tried to access the links but they don't work!

Each link gives me a 404 error.

Where I saw, I deleted the links

But how did you configure the network in your virtual machine (NAT? Bridged?)

Send us a screenshot.

How do you do it on Windows because for Android I used the function on VirtualBox?

I found an ethernet patch for Android 3.2, but I don't know how to apply it.

That's the one.
