Description
I just updated (clean install after a full uninstall) an old 5.0.0 build to the newest 5.1.14 on an old host machine (with P4 S478 3.4GHz CPU), which is running Windows XP Professional SP3 32bit, but had to downgrade it back to the last build in the 5.0 branch (5.0.32), because i discovered, that bridged networking breaks the host's internet connection, through PPPOE ("No remote access - 797", "Cannot access modem", etc. appears). Unfortunatelly, all of the builds in the 5.1 branch are producing exactly this same problem. For better explanation, i attached some pictures too.

After 3 weeks passed, nobody has any thoughts on this subject? Or, support for Windows XP hosts was dropped entirely?

The regression was introduced in 5.1. Self-registration of VBoxNetFltNobj.dll was disabled, which caused the bridged driver to bind to all miniports. The fix will be available in the next maintenance release.
