        Probably ought to ask a virtualbox support forum.

        DO NOT set a source address/port in a port forward or firewall rule unless you KNOW you need it!

          You can edit the textfile that contains the VM config. There are more NICs in there, but disabled, so you can overwrite that. You can also mess up your VM config very much, so keep a backup of the original ready.
