how to run wifi peer to peer application in android emulator..?

[GoogleCodeExporter]

I am trying to develop an wifi peer to peer application in android(4.+). The 
problem here is how to test it.

I tried to run that application in android emulator. there was no option to 
configure wifi in the settings menu, i also tired to enable wifi using the dev 
tools application form the emulator but it didn't work, And through all my 
googling over 3 days and i found that Android emulator is not supported the 
Wifi.

So i opted for androidx86 4.0eeepc using virtual box and tired to add devices 
both wifi and bluetooth (my app uses both bluetooth and wifi) but only 
bluetooth device got added and it did not work. But my virtual box detected the 
wifi and bluetooth devices. I just couldnt get them work with the virtual 
machine.

I tried everything like manually adding the addresses using terminal emulator 
app in androidx86 and used netcfg through the android commandline but neither 
of them worked.

Please suggest and guide me on the correct path to run these kind of 
applications that use wifi and bluetooth in android.

Thanks in advance.
