I have installed Ubuntu 16.04 with Virtualbox and now I am trying to connect Internet from Virtualbox.

I am getting below "There is no Internet connection" error. Is there any way to connect Internet from virtualbox?

I am using Windows 10 and I have connected Internet with ethernet cable without any problem.

The green dot on network logo sometimes goes to red;

  • Did you bridge the network connections? You can do that by selecting "Ethernet" and "Virtualbox Host-Only Network", right-clicking, then selecting "Bridge Connections" (you must be admin to do this).

I've set mine to NAT and this works for Ubuntu Debian with XFCE4 desktop (Linux xxxxxxxx 4.9.0-6-686 #1 SMP Debian 4.9.82-1+deb9u3 (2018-03-02) i686 GNU/Linux). See image below (in Dutch, however, the settings will be clear I presume).

Virtual Box (v 5.2.8) Settings

However, I also have a basic minimal headless install (Linux debian 4.9.0-3-686 #1 SMP Debian 4.9.30-2+deb9u3 (2017-08-06) i686) with same settings that doesn't automatically connect to the network / internet. In this VM I have to enter on a terminal:

sudo dhclient eth0

(or whatever your network card's name is).
