I assume the MAC address is determined by the wifi module or NIC so the wireless router will see a different MAC and assign an IP like it does for the TV, Kindles, etc. Now, how to get the VM, or actually the virtualization layer, to see it. That could get interesting. I had to deal with one site that had a dual- homed server with both NICs on the same subnet. There are valid reasons to do that but in this case it was a complete FUBAR.
