When the VM's network settings are set to "shared network", the host can still access the network.
If I then shutdown the VM, change to one of the "bridged" options and restart the VM, the host OS can no longer access the network and the machine must be rebooted.
It does not seem to be possible for both the host OS and the guest OS to share the wifi in "bridged" mode. This is a HUGE problem for me, as my development flow requires both OSes to have simultaneous access to the network.
This was not a problem in Parallels 10.
The problem is not limited to Windows 10. I have tested my Windows 8.1 VM, and when it, too, is set to bridged networking, the host cannot access the network via wifi.
I have no ethernet adapter handy, so I cannot test it with ethernet.
After reproducing the problem, I tried to use the "Help > Send Technical Data..." to issue the problem report, but since the host OS has lost access to the network, Parallels cannot send the report. I've zipped up the report folder, but it is 10MB in size. Is there an alternate way to send the report?
