Access VirtualBox Mac OS guest on Windows 10 host network


Shahzad Latif |

I have a Windows 10 host with an IP address of 192.168.8.101, a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0 and a gateway of 192.168.8.1.

I also have Mac OS Sierra installed on VirtualBox on this Windows host. This guest macOS has an IP like 10.0.2.15 and a gateway of 192.168.8.1.

My Windows host's internet works fine on my guest macOS.

However, the guest cannot be accessed on the Windows host. I can't find macOS in the Windows network, or it can be accessed using an IP address etc.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I already know.... Since I'm on virtualbox, I have to set the network adapter settings to bridge adapter instead of NAT. After setting up as a bridged adapter, the IP of my guest macOS has also changed, now it looks like 192.168.8.103, which is not the same IP address I got before, and this IP is reachable from the Windows host, and I can log in remotely. This might help others with similar troubles and save some time.
