Will Genymotion connect to internet if networking drivers of Oracle Virtualbox are not installed?

2.5k Views Asked by At

Is it possible for Genymotion to work properly for testing my apps which use internet, if I install the Oracle Virtual Box without its Networking drivers.

Is there a way to make Genymotion directly use Internet from my computer only?

enter image description here

Reason: Because Oracle Virtual Box always messes up my wifi drivers, and I lose my wifi internet connection completely. I had tried every fix on the internet and nothing had helped, then I had to reinstall windows.

What can I do about this?

Genymotion uses the Virtual Machine ( using the Oracle's Virtual Box). A virtual machine can get connected to the network only if you install the required drivers. So the simple answer is NO.

Try the Intel HAXM - link. Its an alternative to GenyMotion, but it provides less no. of features.
