Apparently my Hurd vm can connect to the network just fine. I typically use ping for testing network connectivity. $ sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade showed that I was accessing the network in the vm. I'll send in a patch for the wiki to suggest that is a better method to test if your vm can connect to the network. > Samuel
