I use VMWare workstation and have had no problems with my virtual machines and bridging the network card. However, I installed Virtualbox to check it out and ever since I can't establish a network connection with my virtual machine network cards being set as "bridge".

I did find I could set them to NAT and get a network connection with the nic card.

Obviously, a possible answer would be to uninstall VirtualBox, but maybe I don't have too, and there is an answer.

I have tried unsuccessful the following to get bridging to work... - Uninstalling / Re-installing VMWare tools - Uninstalling / rebooting / re-installing network card - I have even tried giving nic card static IP and related DNS/Gateway server

Has anyone else experienced this problem or know a solution other than removing VirtualBox?
