I have an ubuntu 12.10 vm setup, and I'm trying to enable my network adapter to have its own DHCP IP address within my network, so I am using the "bridged network" mode and setting it to "autodetect" (I've also set it to wifi, which is the only connection I have), and I cannot get it to work.
My settings inside the VM are set to dhcp, and I know the network adapter is working because it works when I set it "Internet sharing" mode.
I have search all over the forums and other places as well for answers, but no luck. Maybe it is a bug in the software version that I have?
Any information on how to fix this would be very appreciated.
Find my vm and host machine info below...
