[android-developers] Re: Will the browser in the ADT emulator use my desktop network connection for browsing sites?

Yes. The emulator uses the host NIC as though it's a WiFi service
provider. All the apps respond accordingly.

Not sure if this will be important for you, but the emulated settings
for Proxy and DNS for that emulated ISP all function by manipulating
the emulator GUI. If you're on an enterprise LAN this might be
important. There are emulator command-line flags for DNS and proxy,
but I found it necessary to set both these _and_ the GUI device
settings for our ELAN. This was not easy to figure out.
