I agree with using nm-connection-editor on Ubuntu. A confusing point to me was using the setting “Shared to other computers” on the downstream port on the host and setting nothing special on the upstream port. In hindsight, it makes sense, but the instructions didn’t make that clear at all. My thinking when reading the phrase was “this is the upstream connection I want to share to other computers”, but a better interpretation is “this is the downstream port where I want expose my upstream to other computers“.
