No internet connection at startup (OL7.2 VirtualBox guest)

lmazgonNov 5 2016 — edited Nov 8 2016

I've got an Oracle Linux 7.2 guest inside VirtualBox, the host is Ubuntu 16.10. I configured 2 network adapters - first is a Bridged Adapter (enp0s3) to the wi-fi interface, second is a Host-only Adapter (enp0s8) with a static IP. After I start the virtual machine I can ssh into it through the Host-only Adapter, I even see that it connects to the wi-fi router and can ping it but I don't get a connection to the outside of my LAN until I restart the network service (in the guest OS). I tried to only restart the bridged adapter (ifdown enp0s3; ifup enp0s3) but it doesn't work.

So, anyone knows where to start looking for reasons and solutions? I would like the machine to connect to the internet automatically, without having to restart the network service every time.

Some command outputs:
