VirtualBox does not natively offer Wireless support (Like a virtualized Wireless device). Instead, it connects directly to the Wireless device the Host uses. In this guide I will point to the steps needed to have a working Wireless card for you Guest. Before we begin you need to make sure you have done the following points: • Installed the Extension Pack for that particular VirtualBox Version.

Currently, VirtualBox supports only IPv4 over Mac's AirPort or Linux Wireless devices.

For protocols such as IPv6 and IPX, you must choose a wired interface. Some adapters strip VLAN tags in hardware.
