Re: internet in Virtual box

You should enable a network adapter and attach it to NAT.

Read the VirtualBox manual, search for NAT in the Networking section

And remember load the network modules before start Virtualbox:

# modprobe vboxnetflt
# modprobe vboxnetadp

You don't need these modules for NAT networking.

Re: internet in Virtual box

Virtualbox Manager / select the Virtual Machine / Settings / Network.
And you don't need those modules as Procyon has already told you.

Re: internet in Virtual box

I don't think you need to change it, mine is PCnet - Fast III. However you should make sure that Cable connected option is checked. You can also change this option when running the WM right clicking on the network icon on the status bar (at the bottom of the window).
