This will make the VM appear to connected directly to the same network as the bridged adapter. It would get it's own IP from DHCP or you could assign it one. You would then be able to access your VM from the host or any machine on the network by the IP it was assigned (either by you or DHCP).
You would then be able to try that askubuntu post.
Have fun!
Works fine. I had to be online for it to work. The wireless router was the middle man.
