Sharing internet connection from host to virtualized Ubuntu with Virtual Box

I have Ubuntu 11.10 in Virtual Box installed on Windows Vista. I am having a Broadband(PPPoE) internet connection. I would like to use my internet connection inside Virtual Box in Ubuntu.
I tried with NAT but it couldn't connect. Then I tried Bridged Network, but still it is not connecting!!
Where am I going wrong?

I use a PFsense router/firewall virtual machine with two adapters, one set to bridged for the WAN and the other set to the Internal (to VirtualBox) network. Then place the Ubuntu VM on the internal network, with the PFSense box set to provide a a IP address via DHCP. This video provides a guide (though it's oriented to setting up a Windows based network): http://pc-addicts.com/how-to-install-pfsense-in-virtualbox/

Although this doesn't help for existing Virtual Boxes, I can recommend Vagrant for any new boxes you might want to create. It's essentially a wrapper for Virtual Box that allows you to easily customise these sorts of things.
