    Anyone having bridged network WiFi issues with their M5 MBA when using
    VMs? Apparently this new-ish M5 MBA and the MBP have the new N1 WiFi chip rather than the Broadcom. See:

    <https://github.com/utmapp/UTM/issues/7658>

    The good news is that there is a workaround/fix in macOS 26.6 and macOS 27.
    I took the risk and installed 26.6 beta on my new refurbished M5 MBA and as
    the article above suggests the issue has gone away.
