It's the main Virtualbox window (at least at FreeBSD). You can change the card at the settings for apropriate virtual machine. Select the network properties and then the card (this should be done when the virtual machine is nor running). Next time you launch that virtual machine (ex. start FreeBSD installation) another network card will be detected. -- WBR, bsam
