    "I have a Macbook with 10.4.11 (Tiger). Parallels Desktop and Windows XP are
    loaded. Windows sees the Parallels network interface and internet
    connection (through the Mac's wireless connection), but I can't access the
    internet using Internet Explorer in Windows. I can using Safari on the Mac
    OS." Thank you.

    I'm not sure where to find these things. I am trying to learn.
    you said "network settings for VM" is this what you mean....In the FM configuration, network adaptor, I have Bridged Ethernet, then Device Status I have Enabled and Connect cable at startup marked.

    ipconfig/all from Windows side....My son suggested going to the Start menu choose Run. Type in "cmd" and enter, then type "ipconfig/all" and enter. But all it said then was "Windows IP Configuration"

    ipconfig-a from Terminal on Mac OS side...can you please tell me where to find this

    Please be patient with me as I do want to resolve my problem. Thank you.

    ipconfig /all - your son's suggestion is correct

    ifconfig -a in Terminal from Applications/Utilities

    VM settings - start Parallels Desktop holding Command key -Configuration Editor- Network Adapter 1

    "Windows IP Configuration" and then nothing else

    On the Mac side the ifconfig -a says:

    Ok I'm having the same issues as the original poster and the reply messages are not helping AT ALL. I have added the network adapter and I still have no connectivity. Does anyone else out there have some step by step tips on how to get the internet up and running in windows XP with a wireless connection on a mac book pro?

    Thanks

    When I put in the ipconfig /all it says "Windows IP Configuration" and that's it.

    I have reread through the Users Guide again. I changed the networking option from Bridged Ethernet to Shared Networking. Was this correct?

    This computer is in another room and using wireless connection to the internet and printer. The connections on the MAC side work fine. I can't get the printer to work on the Windows side either, have been trying Bonjour, but that can be another day.

    Thanks, I await your next instructions. johlde

    I did that but can't figure out how to get it to this place. I tried copy and paste and that didn't work, dragging didn't work, what is the trick? thanks
