Same response as above. NAT and Bridge with 2nd Intel card used. DHCP worked under nat, but was unable to ping the outside internet. Bridge worked perfectly with DHCP and was able to talk to the outside world. Bridge is preferred anyhow as I can set up a static with a public IP for access from the outside world. My host is headless, so I am running virtualbox headless and it works like a champ with the following command: # VBoxHeadless --vnc --vncport 5902 --startvm FreeBSD Note: I had a similar issue with a FreeBSD client running under windows being picky as to which card I selected. This was a couple of years ago. Also, I think I see the same issue with the system time running wildly off from net time. On my old virtualbox system the system clock was so unsteady that ntp would not even lock it down. Thanks, Chris Maness
