Getting the Android-x86 emulator networked properly from within VirtualBox has proven to be more of a challenge than I'd anticipated. Fortunately, I've figured out exactly which steps need to be taken in order to successfully get Android-x86 to connect to the Internet from within VirtualBox...
- Make sure the computer that is running VirtualBox has a stable connection to the Internet.
- Open VirtualBox, but do not start Android-x86 yet.
- Select your Android-x86 virtual machine and click Settings.
- Select Networking and ensure Attached to: is set to NAT.
- Click Advanced and make sure your Adapter Type is set to PCnet-FAST III (Am79C973). Mine was set to Intel by default, and this is what kept me from getting connected for so long.
- Click OK.
- Start your Android-x86 emulator.
- Once booted up, hit Alt + F1 to open the Android console.
- Type
ifconfig eth0 up
and hit enter. - Type
dhcpcd -LK -d eth0
and hit enter. - Type
setprop net.dns1 [DNS IP]
and hit enter. Replace [DNS IP] with the IP address of your DNS server. This is typically your router's IP address. So, for an average home Linksys router you would typesetprop net.dns1 192.168.1.1
and hit enter. - Press Alt + F7 to return to the Android emulator.
- Browse the Internet!
Obviously, an Android emulator isn't worth much if it can't connect to the Internet unless you're a developer. This process of tweaking the VirtualBox network settings got the Internet working for me on Android-x86, and hopefully it will work for you too.
well this did work for browse the web but I still couldn't go into setting and then add an existing/new account (google account) is that something not at all possible in the vbox emulator?
I get the message that ipconfig doesn't exist... :=(
@Monika: I made the same mistake the first time around its not ipconfig but instead ifconfig
:)
didn't work for me, seems there's an error
dhcpcd[2449]: flock '/Data/misc/dhcp/dhcpcd-eth0.pid' : try again
is there any option to connect internet using proxy??
