What output do you get when you run:
qemu-system-i386 -netdev help
It's likely that your binary has been compiled without "user" networking
(aka. "slirp") support. If so, please use a binary that has "slirp"
enabled instead.

Title:
Parameter 'type' expects a netdev backend type
Status in QEMU:
Incomplete
Bug description:
When using QEMU on an M1 Mac with Mac OS 11.1, I see this error
message when trying to enable networking for a guest:
Parameter 'type' expects a netdev backend type
Example command:
qemu-system-i386 -m 700 -hda <Windows XP HD file> -netdev user,id=n0 -device
rtl8139,netdev=n0
What should happen is networking should work when issuing the above
command. What actually happens is QEMU exits immediately.
