I ran into a huge problem while using Oracle VirtualBox on a RDP.

Trying to connect to my 2 VMs

Whenever I try to ping my VMs I get this message : PING: Transmit failed. General failure. But when I try to ping another IP not starting by 169, everything seems to be working as intended. My firewall is deactivated

I have seen this solution online that seemed to work for everyone

ipconfig/release ipconfig/renew ipconfig /flushdns netsh int ip reset c:\tcp.txt netsh winsock reset

I tried flushdns without success but I can't do the other command because I am too scared of losing my RDP connexion.

This is a server I bought on Hetzner without windows and I paid a guy to put window and build the connexion through remote desktop and Idk how the hell to do that.

I really need to be able to ping my VMs for a huge project.

My WM config

In case you would ask here are my settings, it's already bridged and everything is working on my personnal computer but for some reason on my 3 RDPs it is "Transmit failed. General failure."

Thanks for your time, Thomas.
