Bug Description

Starting a guest from Virtualbox GUI often brings the NAT-network unavailable.

To get the NAT-network working when this happens: stop the guest-VM and start it again or save the guest-VM state and start it again.

When the NAT-network is working it will never stop working unless all guest-VMs are closed for a while.

I have noticed when I start multiple VMs from the GUI, that they are not started in selection order (as in previous version of Virtualbox). This means that the NAT-network sometimes is started after the guest-VM and the NAT does not work.
