Ethernet adapter question

[KeirB]

I am using parallels to run software that allows me to connect to a third party device via ethernet. Typically when this software is run on a regular windows machine it will recognize all the Ethernet adapters present on the computer. For instance it will list the hard wired ethernet port as well as any wireless Ethernet adapters.

Right now I am using my computer to connect to the Internet with the wireless adapter, and I am connected to my device with an Ethernet cable. It appears that Windows 7 running under Parallels can only see the wireless adapter. Is there any way to force it to recognize the physical Ethernet port?

Thanks very much!
Keir
