My bad for not being clear :)

I meant, the default setup uses bridge + NAT (i.e. lxdbr0). The NAT is
automatically setup by LXD. That works. If your PC can access the internet,
then anything on your container (e.g. wget, firefox, etc) can access the
internet as well.


Bridge setups WITHOUT nat (those that bridge containers interface directly
to your host interface, e.g. eth0 or wlan), on the other hand, will only
work for wired, and will not work for wireless.
