Help configuring bridged adapter settings on VirtualBox
The internet wasn't working in the VM even though my host was connected to our home network, is there something I overlooked?

Why did you blank your MAC 💀
But it looks correct. Make sure the VM is looking for DHCP
This is also why I use VMware workstation pro lol
I've officially run into another issue 😭
I don't remember that I made any changes other than changing it from NAT network to bridged adapter lol, and now it's not opening without me running it as admin
Even when I do run it as admin, the layout is different than it used to be before. My Metasploitable isn't displayed at all and it isn't showing any info on the Kali like it used to on startup
Okay so this above issue is fixed, I terminated a few processes and got it working for non-admin user accounts again as intended.
There's still the issue of me not being able to connect to the internet in the VM with bridged adapter config
Fully fixed now, bridged adapter configurations are working as intended
I've been trying to poke around with wireshark and capture incoming packets on all the devices connected to my network (promiscuous mode enabled), so far it's just been capturing some communications between my VM and my modem like ARP requests and not HTTP requests from my phone on the same network
Correct, why would it see other traffic?
It's not broadcast traffic
Oh, I thought enabling promiscuous mode would allow it to capture packets being exchanged between all the devices on the same network
How do you do that? Does Wireshark allow it?
That's just... not how networking works lol
A port mirror on a switch would be my go-to

Thanks! I'll try that out
