v5 v6 5 5 > Why does a hardware emulator need to know what is IPTV? Does Acer/Apple/Dell/IBM/HP/Lenovo care about it? 6 6 7 Multiple hardware network interfaces are rare among inexperienced home users. They are not toys for lamers . But VirtualBox is such a toy. :)7 Multiple hardware network interfaces are rare among inexperienced home users. They are not toys for lamers (yet). But VirtualBox is such a toy (already). So, the user expectations are different. 8 8 9 9 > 99% of the users ''(according to who?)'' of IPTV users should be roughly about 3 people. 1 has complained so far. 10 10 11 No, I don't think so. The problem is that it is quite difficult to understand, that VirtualBox is the source of the problem. 12 13 Also, I suspect, most users don't know, where they can complain. And they probably don't know English. 11 No, I don't think so. The problem is that it is quite difficult to understand, that VirtualBox is the source of the problem.

You can skip it during installation, if that's what you believe is causing the problem, and not the buggy way that Microsoft decided to assign "metrics"? … … 33 31 > Did you complain to Microsoft about their "algorithm"? 34 32 35 No. Possibly, their algorithm is not best in all cases. But it is understandable to some extent. I'm not sure that this should be considered as a bug of Microsoft. But definitely Microsoft provided all necessary means to make necessary corrections in the specific case of VirtualBox. 36 37 (Here I imply to remove the redundant line from the route table, as I explained above.) 33 No. Possibly, their algorithm is not best in all cases.
