I have the same setup as you mentioned, with Bridged Adapter, en1:= Wifi (AirPort), and Promiscuous Mode set to {Deny, Allow VMs, Allow All}, b= ut for each of those three options for Promsicuous mode, ip/ipconfig still t= imes out with "ipconfig: no success with dhcp". >=20 So the card itself needs to support it. The little promisc thing in vbox doe= sn't really do shit if your card doesn't support it.=20 Also try setting the ip and other net info manually.
