Hello,

I have ubuntu 19.04 on my laptop and my tower pc. I have virtualbox
hosting a virtual machine of ubuntu server 18.04 on my tower and a copy
of it on my laptop. Bot I had set a static ip outside of my dhcp pool on
via netplan. Both vms are set in bridged mode. They were working and
have been for the past year. Until two weeks ago when google did not
update there signatures so updating didnt work.

At that time I lost connectivity to the internet on both vms, but it
fixed itself withing 3 days on my laptop via updates i assume.

The server on my laptop will connect to the internet. But my server on
my tower pc cant, despite it having a copy of my known good .vhd file
from my laptop. To further my troubleshooting I reset my router to
factory defaults and reconfigured it. I got the same result, my laptop
vm can connect to the internet not my tower one with identical settings.
Even after uninstalling virtualbox many times and reinstalling , same
result.

I can conclude that the problem must be how network manager on ubuntu
19.04 handles virtualized connections.

If I run ifconfig on my host os, I can see a virtual network card but
its on network 122. So unfortunatly I can bridge to that one within
virtualbox.
