I am happy to report that with the new Intel NIC I get an ip address passed to the vlan correctly. Now a new issue is even though I get an ip address I can not get online.
Under Interfaces: enabled - checked Description:: Bench Type: static Bridge with: None Ip Address: 192.168.50.1 /24 Gateway: left blank Firewall Rules: Bench Proto Source Port Dest Port Gateway TCP Bench net * WAN Address * * Under Destination I tried any also and still unable to surf, I know I'm missing something just dont know what.
