Re: Ping not working on VirtualBox
set Network to Bridged Adapter
Why? Do you have the relevant host modules loaded?
https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Virtua … el_modules
https://www.virtualbox.org/manual/ch06.html
Network Address Translation (NAT) is the simplest way of accessing an external network from a virtual machine. Usually, it does not require any configuration on the host network and guest system. For this reason, it is the default networking mode in Oracle VM VirtualBox.
…
The disadvantage of NAT mode is that, much like a private network behind a router, the virtual machine is invisible and unreachable from the outside internet. You cannot run a server this way unless you set up port forwarding. See Section 6.3.1, “Configuring Port Forwarding with NAT”.

Re: Ping not working on VirtualBox
What is the adapter it is using in the network settings?
What OS are you using in the Virtualbox?
What does "ip a" give you when you are in the virtualbox?

Re: Ping not working on VirtualBox
Are those relevant when arch is the guest and windows is the host?
Unlikely, but idk what's necessary to setup a windows host for bridging a VM.
With this option set ping reports Destination Host Unreachable, but it no longer hangs.
Good-ish:
ip a; ip rOffline
