The common factor is the use of a Bridged Network in VirtualBox on Windows 10 updated last week. Based upon prior similar events, I'd guess it's a Windows screw-up. Oh well.

[CentOS] Centos 8 and E1000 intel driver
Folks I know that support for the network adaptors supported by the 'e1000' driver have been removed from the base distribution. However, I have exactly that controller (Broadcom Gigabit Ethernet PCI, not PCIe). Is there a way for me to add support for that on Centos 8.1? Perhaps a driver in an RPM package?
