Very annoying for me, as I have a satellite uplink that has a cast-in-stone
IP of 192.168.0.1, so my router is set on the same subnet.  The uplink is
not open source, so there's no way to fix that.  One of these days I'll
find time to start digging into VirtualBox to see if there's any way to
change the IPs.
