Genymotion Desktop and firewalls

Genymotion Desktop must connect locally to the virtual device via the local network. To do so, a virtual host-only network card is created and configured.

If you have a firewall, make sure that you authorized connections to Genymotion Desktop and all its virtual network adapter. By default, the IP range is set to 192.168.56.0/24 but this may change depending on your system configuration. To find out the network to authorize:

1. Run VirtualBox.
2. Open File > Host Network Manager (or VirtualBox > Host Network Manager  for macOS).
   
3. Click on the Host-only interface (usually called "vboxnetX") to display its IP range.

If several networks adapters are displayed, you can find out which one is used by Genymotion Desktop by opening the device properties in VirtualBox main window.
