Forcing Genymotion to use my home wifi

By default Genymotion (virtualbox) uses a host wifi named "WiredSSID". How can I force it to use my home wifi?

I have tried changing the Adapter 1 and Adapter 2 of Virtualbox Network Settings to use Bridged Adapter > en0: Wifi (Airport) but it resets back to the default on Adapter 1 and does nothing to change network wifi on Adapter 2.

I am using Genymotion 2.2.2, Virtualbox 4.3.12 r93733 on OSX Mavericks.

Genymotion always use your Laptop's or Desktop's Internet. It just showing you wifi symbol. It do not connect to your physical world dude... It's virtual thing. – Harsh Patel
If that's true, Chromecast installed on android genymotion should ideally work and let me stream from youtube android app to my television but it doesn't. – Sushi

Apparently I just had to restart the genymotion emulator couple of times. WiredSSID is indeed the home wifi. It just didn't recognize in the beginning.
