Possibly Robert misunderstood something he read somewhere. libvirt's virtual networks, and the "nat" forward mode in particular, were created explicitly to work around the fact that a Linux host bridge can't be directly attached to a wireless interface. So actually it is "bridged" connections that don't work with wireless, and NAT is the solution to this problem. As for USB - if the USB adapter plugs into a wired network, then the adapter can be bridged (and guests attached to that same bridge appear directly on the physical network), but if the USB adapter is a wireless adapter, then it can't be bridged. In either case, though, you can use libvirt's "default" network (or create your own virtual network and set <forward mode='nat'/>) and the guests will be able to make outbound connections to the physical network, with their IP being NATed to that of the virtualization host.
