UTM VMs on Mac: No internet access in any network mode

UTM VM no internet access


My Mac running on Tahoe 26.1 with M4 Pro chip

UTM version is 4.7.4 (115)

My mac is managed by Apple Business Essential,

I am the ABE Owner, pushed UTM from ABE.


However, macOS/Windows VM both have no internet connection, no matter I use Shared/Bridge mode.

When using Shared mode, the VM has a 192.168.x.x IP address, checked in the VM Network, it shows connected.

however, can't access any web sites. Ping to 8.8.8.8 got timeout.

When using Bridge mode with DHCP, the VM has a self assigned IP address, no internet connection too.

When using Bridge mode, with a static IP that I have it reserved in the Router, ping 8.8.8.8 were successful. however, access websites are very slow, if not timed out.


I checked in the Host Privacy & Security -> Local Network, there is no UTM listed there, and I have no way to add.

I tried to build a Custom Profile in ABE to allow network sharing with UTM, working with ChatGPT for days, and got the answer of ABE can't do it.


Any other thing that I can try?


Thanks,

MacBook Pro (M4 Pro, 2024)
