build 3214 internet connection just stopped working

Hi,

I'm set up for shared networking. My internet works fine in OSX, but XP SP2 just went to limited or no connectivity. It's odd because it was working a couple days ago.

I've followed the automatically select TC/|P and the other check box thing.

I'm running out of ideas.

Help please


when i repair the ip address it says it cannot renew the ip address.

 

Have you tried re-installing Parallels tools?

 

I am having the same problem. Reinstalling parallels tools did not fix it. Any ideas?

 

Hmm... Have you tried Bridged Networking?

What is your default OS X adapter?
Is it the same one that you connect to the internet with?
Do your Parallels adapters have IPs?

 

I am using shared networking

I'm using shared networking. In fact I've not changed the config at all since I installed Parallels almost a year ago.
Wrt my Mac config, my default device is the AirPort adapter.

 

Switching to bridged networking "fixed" the issue

 

Got this from support - I've not tried it yet :

Hello,

Go to Macintosh HD -> Applications -> Utilities -> Disk Utility
Then press Repair Disk Permissions please.
Don't forget to restart your Mac after that.

 

Typical troubleshooting... It could help you out, or there may be a mis-configuration in your System Preferences.

 

If your using shared networking check in Apple System prefs: networking and see if you have a legit IP. If not, re-install parallels tools, shut down your VM and reboot your Mac. This always works for me.
