Virtualbox: Separate remote access from the VM's internet access

tommy delicious

I want to access a Windows 7 VM via VRDP from my fixed LAN (the VM is configured for remote access), but I want all applications in the VM to use a separate WiFi connection. I have a USB WiFi adapter connected to the host that connects to the VM on boot.

So basically, all traffic inside the VM should be routed through the WiFi network, and accessing the VM through VRDP should be done from the fixed LAN used by the host.

Is this possible, can anyone point me in the right direction? Thanks in advance.

This is possible. In the VM's VirtualBox settings:

  • Disable all network adapters
  • Add a USB filter to your USB Wi-Fi adapter (you already did)
  • Enable remote screen (you already did)
