I've been trying to switch to VirtualBox from VMWare, but one sticking point is I've been having a hard time figuring out how to set up multiple guests on the outside network.
The first host goes easily enough- new interface, bridge to the physical adapter, done. The trick is that to do it again for a concurrent machine the physical adapter is no longer available for bridging.
Is there a good way to do this short of running a router vm?
Best way to expose multiple guests to the outside network?

You can attach several interfaces to the same bridge. You can't create more bridges on Windows though, just one is the maximum.
