it-work):
In my case, the gateway address was 192.168.0.254 and the DNS server
was 192.168.0.10. I select an IP address for the VirtualBox host from
the unused ones (192.168.0.250).
1) First of all, I set my VirtualBox network configuration:
Attached to: Bridged Adapter
Adapter type: PCnet-FAST III
2) After that, I start Android from VirtualBox; after boot, I open a
root shell, pressing Alt+F1
3) Here, I use these commands:
ifconfig eth0 up 192.168.0.250
route add default gw 192.168.0.254 dev eth0
setprop net.dns1 192.168.0.10
4) Now, I return to Android (Alt + F7), and I can surf on internet!
Unfortunately, this process must be followed each time

Works for me simply by running the network device as bridged, rather
than the default, which I think is NAT.

tried using the default gateway of the main connection (windows 7
host), ipconfig /all gives:

there is no default gateway for the VB eth.

1) change the network settings from 'Public Network" to 'Home
Network' at the 'Network and Sharing Center"
(thanks to thread <a href="http://www.sevenforums.com/network-sharing/
128023-default-gateway-not-available.html">this</a> thread).
2) in ifconfig line needed to add netmask to 255.255.255.0, which is
the default netmask/submask
hope it helps,
Thanks you all,
BTW, really wish there was a way to make it permanent, so I wont have
to run these commands every time I start this...
maybe so bash script in the 'etc' folder?

However, you may add netcfg eth0 dhcp
to your init.rc.

setprop net.dns1 8.8.8.8
The problem is that I still keep getting 'No internet connection'
messages even though it is connected... I can browse using the android
browser but it still complains about not being connected as soon as I
open the browser, yet it still lets me browse.
This is a problem because other apps do not see that it is connected
either such as the android market which makes it non functional...
Is there a quick fix for this?
