Can't connect between Windows XP host and Ubuntu guest

Ultimately, I'd like to run bridged network mode but I can't even get host-only to work. Any other troubleshooting/debugging steps I can take? Here's what I've tried:
  • Verified Windows firewall is disabled
  • Verified that both host and guest are being configured via DHCP (ifconfig/ipconfig)
  • Tried running wireshark on the host. I see a bunch of ARP requests coming from the guest and responses that apparently go unreceived as the requests keep coming with no ensuing application traffic (ICMP/ping)
  • Installed various updates.

Hrm. Switching to Paravirtualized Network (virtio-net) Adapter Type (under settings | network adapters | adapter 1 | advanced, while the VM is off) fixed the problem.
