Hello,

172.20.113.137 for your uml would work, as it is in the same lan as your
host, but you need to bridge your host's interface to the tap you have
just created.

Then if this worked, both your host and your uml would be able to access
to your adsl router, BUT I have never been able to bridge (brctl from
bridge-utils) a wlan interface to a tap.

Last time I tried, the wifi interface could not be put in promiscious mode
and it did not work.

There are 2 alternatives to get the internet in an UML:

1 There should be an old software called slirp that can emulate an ip
interface for your UML:
Each TCP HTTP socket comes into the user world of your host, the data is
extracted and put into emulated IP packets that penetrate into your UML
machine as an IP flow with syn, synack and all TCP stuff.

2 There is cloonix, the slirp software (used also in qemu and in virtual
box) has been rewriten and machines connect to the internet just like qemu
machines.
But cloonix supports UML machines.
