Access host from Genymotion emulator
Solution 1:
try this ip address: 10.0.3.2 It should work
Solution 2:
I had the same problem as OP, switching to Bridged for Adapter 2 rectified the problem for me.
VirtualBox > Settings > Network > Adaptor 2
Attached to: Bridged Adapter
Name: en0: Wi-Fi (airport)
Solution 3:
Try this to verify (works for me)…
On your host start up the simplest web server in some random directory:
$ python -m SimpleHTTPServer
Serving HTTP on 0.0.0.0 port 8000 …
Now in your genymotion device startup Chrome and browse to http://192.168.56.1:8000
and you should see a webpage listing the contents of the directory you stared the SimpleHTTPServer in.
This shows that connecting from guest to host on the IP address you indicated works. There must be some other issue.
