5. Now, Time to update your Realtek Driver Update. Open Device Manager and Go to Network Adapters and Right click on Realtek PCIe GBE Family Controller and Update it with search automatically. (Now the Wrong Red X Icon also gone.)

This method is works for me . I faced this problem two time at yet. One almost a six month ago & Second time I get this problem 2 days ago. When I update my Virtual Box to 4.3.2 .

Note:- Try at your on risk, But I don’t think its risky. Just don’t mess up with any other driver.

This fix for Windows Vista, 7 or above because all these windows have built in Driver found functionality. And You should try on these windows. If you do anything wrong with driver (Example:- Uninstalled Driver or Delete the Driver) then your next restart of PC solve the problem.
