Description
Been using Ubuntu guest on Windows 7 for some time with little problem, and running regular VirtualBox updates as they came out. I use the bridge network adapter to give Ubuntu network connection.
Just ran the latest update today (v. 4.2.10 r84104), after which my network adapter (on windows host) stopped working. When I go into the network settings and untick the virtualbox bridged network adapter, I get my network back.
When I start Ubuntu I get an error:
Result Code: E_FAIL (0x80004005) Component: Console Interface: IConsole {db7ab4ca-2a3f-4183-9243-c1208da92392}
My network controller is a: Realtek RTL8168C(P)/8111C(P) Family PCI-E Gigabit Ethernet NIC (NDIS 6.20)
Please reopen if still relevant with a recent VirtualBox release.
