Here is what info I get about the network on each one:

Hi there:
The precise KVM command would be useful in determining what's going on.
Since I'm guessing, I may as well presume you used -net
nic,(options...) -net user. If you did, the magick is in the qemu
binary which is both providing a DHCP service to the guest and
performing the necessary outbound source NAT.
But as others have mentioned, more information on how you started KVM
might be useful to determine what's going on. The reason is that there
are several ways to set up networking in KVM.
The command is (and running as a user, not root):
$ kvm win7kvm.img -m 1024 -boot c -usb -usbdevice tablet
$ which kvm
/usr/bin/kvm
$ ls -l /usr/bin/kvm
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 17 Apr 21 15:10 /usr/bin/kvm - /usr/bin/qemu-kvm
$ file /usr/bin/qemu-kvm
/usr/bin/qemu-kvm: POSIX shell script text executable
$ cat /usr/bin/qemu-kvm
#!/bin/sh
exec /usr/bin/qemu-system-x86_64 --enable-kvm $@
