IP address keeps changing after reboot

Hi

This is driving me NUTS! I use Parallels 3.0 on OS X Leopard. When I install Parallels, there are two network adaptors. A Parallels to guest with the IP address 10.37.129.2 and a Parallels NAT with the address 10.211.55.2. That works fine, all my guests have connection to the internet. However, everytime I restart my Mac, these two addresses changed to 169.245.114.21 or something similar, and both adaptors will always have the same address. Needless to say, none of my guests have connection to the internet.

When I uninstall Parallels then reinstallel it, I get the correct address 10.211.55.2 and 10.37.129.2. But if I restart the Mac the same thing happen again.


I tried to assign static correct IPs in the System Preferences, but it doesn't help.

What is wrong? is it Parallels? the Mac? or something I am not doing right? Please help.

Thanks.

Could someone please help me?

It's getting very tiring to have to uninstall and reinstall Parallels everytime I nee to use it. I am going to ask for my money back if I don't have a solution soon.
