USB WiFi Networking Conflict

Description (last modified by )
On a WindowsXP host using wifi as its primary network connection (Realtek 8187B operating as a USB device), merely starting the VirtualBox application kills the host network.
Disabling the "VirtualBox USB Monitor Driver" device in the WinXP device manager (as per workaround in http://www.virtualbox.org/ticket/1712) prevents the VirtualBox application from killing the host network. However, this precludes all but NAT networking for VirtualBox guests, and presumably breaks USB for guests.
I confirm this bug is still present in VirtualBox 3.0.0. The first report of this bug was over 2 years ago in version 1.6.x (see http://www.virtualbox.org/ticket/845). The original workaround in that report (restarting host network adapter) does not work in 3.0.0.

Same here. On Windows 7 RC (build 7100) x64 with a Relatek RTL8187B wifi. Thx for the workaround : no more problems when "VirtualBox USB Monitor Driver" is disabled.

I have the same problem with virtualbox 3.0.4 and toshiba satellite pro L300. The wifi netcard is a internal usb realtek 8187. When I start Virtualbox in windows xp SP3 host the wifi network don´t work. When I finish my virtaulbox sesion and close then, Wifi card don´t response and I must be the "repair" option in windows network manager. Then It´s work.

With the instructions from bug #1712 I solve the problem. When I start virtualbox in windows xp sp3 host my realtek wifi 8187 usb built-in don´t stop and the virtual machines have network access across the wifi network.

I tried to reproduce the problem on three different systems but completely failed. I tried with XP SP3, Windows Server 2003 (32-bit), and Windows 7 Ultimate (64-bit). The device was a LogiLink WiFi USB stick with a RTL8187B chipset. In for Server 2003 I used the driver from a supplied CD, for XP and W7 I used the drivers from Windows Update. Starting VirtualBox did *not* do anything to the wireless connection.
Of course, no problem -> no fix. So there must be something more specific about the failing machines than just the Realtek USB WiFi. It could help if users with this problem supplied:
- exact identification of the USB device, i.e., USB\VID_xxxx&PID_yyyy&REV_zzzz from the Device Manager as well as the marketing name; ours is a LogiLink wireless LAN USB 2.0 Adapter, USB\VID_0BDA&PID_8187&REV_0200.
- exact version of the driver for the USB device, and in case the driver was downloaded from somewhere, then where; e.g., RTL8187B.sys by Realtek Semi, file version 62.1174.0701
- output of ipconfig /all
In case of detachable USB sticks, does the same problem occur on every machine the stick is plugged into?
Is there other software installed on the failing systems that might interfere with USB?

Thanks for your insterest. In windows Xp, wifi card is named "Adaptador de red USB 2.0 de 54 Mbps inalámbrico 802.11b/g Realtek RTL8187B#2" (in spanish. In english will be like "network adapter USB 2.0 to 54 Mbps wireless...."). In Hardware identificator I see this: USB\Vid_0bda&Pid_8198&Rev_0200 USB\Vid_0bda&Pid_8198 My adapter seems like your adapeter.
Controller: USB\VID_0BDA&PID_8198\00E04C000001 c:\windows\system32\drivers\rtl8187b.sys version 5.1116.1226.2007 build by WinDDK. This controller don´t seem your controller, but I donñt know the meaning of this. If I update the driver , I don´t get your version (In Realtek web, http://www.realtek.com.tw/downloads/downloadsView.aspx?Langid=1&PNid=24&PFid=1&Level=6&Conn=5&DownTypeID=3&GetDown=false&Downloads=true, the latest version of driver is 5.1135 for xp) Output of ipconfig /all (this is in spanish)

comment:7 by , 15 years ago
Thanks for the information! Your Toshiba does not seem to have the same device that I do, unfortunately. Mine is USB\VID_0BDA&PID_8187, yours is USB\VID_0BDA&PID_8198, even though both are called 8187B by the drivers (Realtek likes to do that kind of thing).
I don't see anything particularly unusual in the data you posted (which is valuable information in itself), except for one thing: In the system information, there are *two* RTL8187B devices, and in the ipconfig output, the active one is identified as "Adaptador [...] RTL8187B #2". That means there is or was another 8187B installed in the system. Do you know what that might be?

I think taht this problem is a problem of my xp installation. Windows XP came preinstallated in this notebook and I make a DVD image restoration once. erhaps a clean install I would solve the problem. I will do tests trying to eliminate the ghost device. I informs you the results. Thanks.

Hello again. I thought the problem was "hidden usb" that it made the network adapter realtek 8187B was No. 2. I format my C: partition (NTFS), I reinstalled a fresh copy of windows XP SP3. I download and install teh realtek 8187b driver (from toshiba web) and virtualbox 3.0.4, hoping it would work to the first. Not Work. When I start virtualbox (before I start any virtual machine) internet conection is broken. When I close virtualbox and repair the wifi conection, I go back to having internet. I would like to discover the problem (but with the trick of disabling usb monitor everything works), also for the excellent care you have given me, besides what your special software. Is there a log file that I could send you for help to see the problem?
comment:12 by , 15 years ago
Hello,
I have the same problem (wireless stops when starting virtual box, without launching a vm). It is solved by disabling virtualbox usb driver in device manager.
Hope my information will help reproduce this mean bug :
I use an external usb device, identified as "TRENDnet TEW-424UB 54M USB Dongle".
The exact identification is : USB\VID_0BDA&PID_8189\00E04C000001
Here are the informations of the driver I installed from the driver cd : Publisher : Realtek Semiconductor Corp. Date : 18/07/2007 Version : 5.1097.718.2007 Signature : Microsoft Windows Hardware Compatibility Publisher
Note : I have some other usb devices connected to my system - logitech quickcam pro 9000, western digital hd, m-audio interface.

chemoski: No, at this point there's probably no log file you could send. It looks like the problem is specific to a Realtek 8189 chip, and not the 8187 or 8187B (typical Realtek).
chrp: Is this the device you have? http://www.amazon.de/Trendnet-TEW-424UB-Wireless-Adapter-Netzwerkkarte/dp/B000636JD8
comment:14 by , 15 years ago
It appears this bug is present on some versions of both the 8189 and 8187B. My original report was confirmed for an internal 8187B. This wifi implementation (and thus the 8187B chipset) is quite common on a large number (or most) mass-marketed Gateway laptops from 2007-9. In fact, I believe most 802.11g-speed Gateways will include this chipset, so I'd assume the bug affects a significant number of users.
I'm not sure if there were different chipset hardware revisions with this model number (but as michaln noted, being Realtek, we can assume there are many).
It appears the bug persists in 3.04. I'll see if I can duplicate the bug on a linux host and the same hardware to rule out Win32-specific drivers.
I don't see the USB ID included in my vbox.log dump above, so will post that when I have a chance.
comment:15 by , 15 years ago
I've obtained my device data and it appears we've confirmed Realtek has different devices (and maybe different chipsets?) with the same Device ID. See below that my ID (for my INTERNAL) usb device matches that for their EXTERNAL device. Once again, I'll report back with my results on a linux 2.6 kernel host when I have a chance.

comment:16 by , 15 years ago
regeland: We haven't fixed the bug, basically because we don't have any idea what's causing it yet. We have a USB WiFi stick with a Realtek 8187, but that doesn't show the problem. Everyone who posted their device ID so far has the USB\VID_0BDA&PID_8189\00E04C000001 device.
It's even more mysterious because AFAICT the 8187 and 8189 are using the exact same Windows driver.
Linux host won't have the problem because the host USB implementation is completely different.
I'd like to get a WiFi stick that provokes the failure, but it's *really* hard to figure out what chip a given USB device contains before buying it, so we need to know under what name exactly one of those 8189 devices is sold.
comment:17 by , 15 years ago
michaln: Thanks for your update. You're right as I tried Linux and no bug. As to the hardware specific nature of the bug, I'd be happy to open my laptop up to you through Remote Desktop or VNC via my ethernet port if that helps. Of course it could be tricky to diagnose the problem remotely, but let me know if you think it could help.
comment:18 by , 15 years ago
regeland: I'll need to run a kernel debugger on the failing machine, so remote access alone doesn't help much. I'll continue trying to get a USB WiFi stick with the "bad" chip, they clearly do exist...
comment:19 by , 15 years ago
The good news is that I now have one of the problem devices, a TRENDnet TEW-424UB which identifies itself as USB\VID_0BDA&PID_8189\00E04C000001. The bad news is that I still don't see the problem. Starting VirtualBox does not disrupt the wireless network connection in any way.
I tried both a driver from Windows Update (this is on a XP SP3 host) and the TRENDnet driver shipped with the device. Both work fine when VirtualBox is running. The driver I'm using now is RTL8187B.sys, file version 5.1097.0718.2007, dated 07/19/2007.
For those who have problems, I would suggest trying the driver from Windows Update instead of whatever was shipped with the device.
It might also help me to see the output of 'VBoxManage list usbhost' both before and after starting VirtualBox, as well as the output of 'VBoxManage list usbfilters' (the latter should not change when VirtualBox starts.

I have a problem similar to the one mentioned above. I'm using Ubuntu 9.10 64-bit as host system and running VirtualBox v3.1.0 r55467. My Guest system is Kubuntu 8.10 32-bit. My laptop is a Toshiba L350D-10i. It also has a rtl8187b USB 2.0 internal wireless card.
When I open VirtualBox my wireless host connection stays active, but from the moment I start a virtual machine with USB enabled my wireless on the host system disconnects. When I disable the usb connector on the Virtual Machine my wireless on my host system reconnects.
This is the info from the hosts "lsusb" command:
Bus 001 Device 002: ID 0bda:8197 Realtek Semiconductor Corp. RTL8187B Wireless Adapter Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub Bus 005 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub Bus 006 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub Bus 003 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub Bus 004 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub
The command "lsusb -v" produces this:

I´ve similar problems like descripted here.
Installing of Virtualbox4.1.6 on openSUSE12.1 kernel3.1.0 conflicts with wireless driver ath9k. -> Checked more than once! It always happennd after an installation of Virtualbox to openSUSE12.1 systems!
The network rate is decreasing down to 120kbits from 700kbits and sometimes(between 10min and some hours the connection breaks completely-> only a complete shutdown helps. So there is something very wrong on you integrate your network in that of every host.
It´s with Atheros TP-Link 5008. When you want to have kernel logs of this, you can look at:
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=709436
Create an account and you can download many many logs. The last which were attached there were in full debugging mode for ath9k, so I´am pretty sure that they can show you how to hunt down this hard bug.
So, should I open up a new ticket, because it is linux, or would you like to handle it here?
Bug 6912 seems to be a duplicate of this here. And I confirm that this is a blocker.

maninred2: Both this ticket and 6912 apply to Windows hosts and are totally unrelated to whatever the problem is with your Linux host. There's really not much useful information in ticket 6912, but this one is related to the old Windows USB monitor in VirtualBox which isn't even used anymore and specific models of RealTek USB WiFi adapters. It has absolutely nothing to do with anything Linux related (the way VirtualBox handles USB on Linux is not even remotely similar), and by mixing apples and oranges you're just wasting everyone's time.

o.K my mistake. Then I file a new one like I´ve asked to do that.
-> When I´ve go the way here to report I expect not an introduction to wasting time and mixing up. Mistakes happen. -> See the other side: Breaking network is also wasting time and I do not blame you for that! Keep friendly michaln.
