Switch the network to bridged instead of NAT

hi,
Thanks, but i don't have this option on the list, the list contains:
Not Attached
Nat
Host Interface
Internal network
do i need to do something special to add this option ?
Thanks.

You're using an old version. Since 2.1.0, you can use Bridged mode which will allow you to use the NIC directly, without the use of a virtual one and bridge it manually with the physical NIC. So you have to use Host Interface. I'm not exactly sure about the name though, could be that the feature I described was still called Host Interface for 2.1.
