True Enough but the adsl Ip range is not in my control as you have assumed correctly.
when you bridge virtual hosts to a LAN, they appear just like they are real machines plugged into the same LAN. they'll each get their own IP from the ADSL router's DHCP.
why is this a problem? are you not allowed to plug in multiple systems?
as I previously explained, if you create a separate subnet for your VMs, you'll need to route them, and ALL the hosts on the LAN including the ADSL internet gateway will need to know this route or they (and the internet) wont work for those VMs. alternately, you use NAT, and then your VM's aren't externally visible, but they can connect out to the internet (which will appear to your router like your host system is doing the connections)
