Yes, this is suboptimal, but better than no connectivity if you must use bridged for some reason. I cannot connect to that router of mine with DHCP, but if I use static IP in the guest then I get normal connectivity. This latter kind of routers has problems with DHCP, but usually you can work around it by not using DHCP and using static IP instead. I have one router like this (though it at least uses ethernet broadcast for its DHCP NAKs, so you can see something in the wireless capture. In the ethernet capture you can see DHCP replies unicast to guest and in the wireless capture you don't see any replies at all. I'm afraid the packet captures in comment:14 is an example of that. These packets will never be even seen by the host.

guest MAC in this case) fetched from the DHCP request. Unfortunately - and this is orthogonal to multicast/unicast issue above - some routers will send DHCP replies to broadcast IP, but to the unicast client MAC address (i.e. So this is just an optimization for wifi that some routers do. If you plug another computer into the wired port of the router to capture DHCP exchange as seen on the wired side, you would see the same DHCP replies sent to ethernet broadcast on the wired connection. In this case the host was receiving DHCP replies intended for the guest (broadcast IP, but unicast to host MAC), but was not rewriting MAC address correctly, so the guest was not receiving the packet. If the wifi router that is not working for you just uses unicast delivery for multicast, then 4.3.16 should help (a typical packet capture can be seen in #12207). Behavior varies between wifi routers, so you may get bridged setup working with some and not working with others. ficient-01 - that is in context of IPv6, but the same logic applies to IPv4 (IPv6 is hit harder since it relies more on multicast).

I've also tried an earlier version of VBox (5.2.26) and this behaved the same too.Дoes anyone know of a way I might be able to get my guest VM to be able to get an IP via DHCP, or how I might me able to track the problem down (I've run out of knowledge).? I've tried a couple of laptops from different manufacturers (Dell and Lenovo) and I'm getting the same behaviour, i.e. The wireless connection on the laptop itself can obtain an IP via DHCP so I know there aren't any resrictions on that front. I can set the guest up with a static IP and this connects without any problems, but, unfortunately, I need to use DHCP as the laptops this solution will be used on can operate from anywhere and, hence, pick up any IP range which is given out, for example on a home, hotel or other customer network.

If, however, the bridge is set to use my laptop's wireless network connection then I cannot get an IP address using DHCP. If the bridge uses any wired adaptor (including the USB ethernet dongle I currently have connected to my laptop), then I can get an IP address using DHCP and, subsequently, connect to anything, anywhere, with no problems. I need to use Bridged networking with this guest as the VM is to provide us with VPN access to customers, some of whom use PPTP VPNs.

I'm currently having a an issue trying to set up a new Windows 10 64-bit VM in Virtualbox 6.0.12 (also running Windows 10 64-bit).
