@Beber55 Looking at your screenshot and the wording, the reason for the RJ45 needing to be plugged is that you’ve got it set to DHCP instead of static IP.
For static IP, follow this guide: https://askubuntu.com/questions/766131/set-static-ip-ubuntu
The other option is, if Virtual Box supports it, set the interface as NAT’d so that you get another DHCP locally on your PC. I’ve not used Virtual Box in ages so I can’t confirm this.
