I have on the host machine two network interfaces. One is lan and the other is a wlan. For libvirt I have created a nat network which is bound to the wlan. From the guest I can access other machines in the network host wlan is connected to. Also DNS lookup works. The problem is that there’s no connection to the internet at all, e.g. pinging something gives “Destination network unreachable”. This only happens when both network connection on the host are active. Running qemu/libvirt on OpenSuse Tumbleweed.

The nat network in question:

<network>
  <name>natToWlan</name>
  <uuid>a44c939c-e6bf-44d0-8f86-376056d418a4</uuid>
  <forward dev="wlp19s0f4u1u1" mode="nat">
    <nat>
      <port start="1024" end="65535"/>
    </nat>
    <interface dev="wlp19s0f4u1u1"/>
  </forward>
  <bridge name="virbr1" stp="on" delay="0"/>
  <mac address="52:54:00:1f:64:95"/>
  <ip address="192.168.100.1" netmask="255.255.255.0">
    <dhcp>
      <range start="192.168.100.128" end="192.168.100.254"/>
    </dhcp>
  </ip>
</network>

    • Your wlan

    • Your home lan

    • The internet

    That makes three networks. Not two.

    First, think about the way from the internet to your home lan. Is there NAT happening? Is there a DHCP server?

    And then on the way from lan to wlan your server is doing NAT and DHCP again.

    That doubling of NAT and/or DHCP is probably creating trouble.
