Thanks Salvatore, that's what I suspected. I noticed the subnet 
host_routes does the dhcp trick, but that does not help me, since the 
route out is in public network, not in guest network. I wonder if there 
are any plans toward adding extra routes to quantum router? Otherwise I 
need to add another real HW router in between my network :(

Techinically I suspect the work would require adding an extra route and 
a firewall rule into quantum routers namespace.

I'm sorry I hijacked this thread, we can move back to chat within my 
original question mail (s/hot/how/ in topic):

I didn't get any replies there and this question was directly related...

BR,
 Ilkka
