Networking problems with Virtualbox

I've been having some issues lately with Virtualbox. What happens is, after a while, the guest machine loses network connectivity, even when trying to ping the guest I get a destination host unreachable.

I'm using Virtualbox-ose from the repos, used to use the one installed with the .run from the official site and everything ran fine. I'm using a NAT setup for the network. Virtualbox is version 3.2.10. The machines that lose connectivity are a Debian and a Backtrack(Which I believe is Ubuntu based). I have the vboxdrv, vboxnetflt and vboxnetadp modules loading at startup through the rc.conf file. Not sure what I can do about it, or what's causing the problem exactly, if this continues I'll have to go back to downloading and installing Virtualbox myself, but I'd rather have the one on the repos though.

Re: Networking problems with Virtualbox

Yeah I had no issues when using a bridged interface, but I really need the solution to this since I'm going to need NAT eventually.
