Can not connect to the internet and search the wireless after i installed "virtualbox" ,how to fix it ?

You mean you can't connect from inside virtualbox - from the guest OS - or from Arch?

What's the output of 'ip addr list'? Are the net modules loaded?

is Arch your host or guest?

my system can not connect to the internet , not the virtualbox,even when i unintalled the virtualbox ,it still have the same problem.
the worst way i have to reinstall my system.

Did you try rebooting after you uninstalled VirtualBox? I know sometimes the net modules from VB can be tweaky and might not uninstall correctly.

ringfin · 2011-09-10 03:38:15

yes have rebooted ..

ringfin · 2011-09-10 03:40:17

do you know what is the problem? how to fix it ? i can't find the answer from google

ringfin · 2011-09-10 03:42:10

arch is my host

That was an important question -- yet it has been ignored.

And the answer is ... ?

Edit: yes it has -- while I was posting.

He did eventually say that Arch was his host.

Okay, What is the output of ip addr ??

ringfin · 2011-09-10 04:40:57

i think my /etc/rc.conf and wicd config are all right.
my ip :192.168.1.108, mask 255.255.255.0 ,gateway:192.168.1.1,DNS.192.168.1.1

the problem happened after i installed virtualbox
what i want to know is what is the problem with virtualbox and network,or how to connect to the internet,i can't fix it.
i can ping through 127.0.0.1,and use "ifconfig" appeared the ip address .. information,but can not ping through 192.168.1.1,the message is :"...... Destination Host unreachable!",but when i use a usb system puppy ,i can connect to
the internet,so i think there is must be something with virtualbox.i have reinstall my arch linux twice,appears the same problem.

sorry,right now i'm using otherone's computer ,not my own laptop.my reply maybe later
thanks.

after i reinstalled the arch third time ,i found the real reason,it's something about my wireless module!my wireless device is "Broadcom Corporation BCM4312 802.11b/g ",so i installed "broadcom-wl",cp module"wl.ko" to "/lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/", the problem happened ,after i uninstalled it ,the network works.
there is my steps to install my wireless driver:

1.
download the newest 802.11 Linux STA  bagage   [url]http://www.broadcom.com/support/802.11/linux_sta.php[/url] 
2.
[root@host ~]# mkdir ～/hybrid_wl
# mkdir hybrid_wl
# cd hybrid_wl
#tar -xzf   hybrid-portsrc-x86_64.tar.gz
3.
# make clean   (optional)
# make
4.
cp -rf wl.ko /lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/
5.
# lsmod  | grep "b43\|ssb\|wl"
# rmmod b43
# rmmod ssb
# rmmod wl

# echo "blacklist ssb" >> /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf
# echo "blacklist b43" >> /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf
#echo "blacklist bcma" > /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf
edit /etc/rc.conf MODULES=(... wl !b43 !ssb lib80211 lib80211_crypt_tkip...)
6.
# modprobe lib80211 
  or 
# modprobe lib80211_crypt_tkip
Then:
# insmod wl.ko
#depmod -a

after retart system, it appears unable to connect to the network and search the wireless signals.

Install it from the AUR instead: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=19514
Then follow the Wiki instructions: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Br … roadcom-wl
