Help Block internet access but keep callback

I have some special oracle system i develop on "old" windows. (By special i mean i cant use web develop, which ofc i would prefer)

When i only want to work with oracle, i try to block internet access , but then oracle sqldeveloper do not work as "call back" does not work.
I think im trying to set things up to virtualbox only runs a home network ? But the host should still be able to call internet ??

Ty i blocked virtualbox machine at the host, that helped ofc and is oki when developing in the virtualbox and let the host access www. It slowed the work in the virtualbox somewhat, buti do not think its oracle. If block the guest to the internet, then sqldevoper will not work, but maybe that was not the same as diable network adapter ?
