No Internet Connection, No Ethernet Controller

I installed Parallels Desktop 3.0 for my MacBook Pro. All seemed fine, but I can't connect to the internet. I tried the recommended troubleshooting steps, but they didn't work. After a little digging, it seems that the "ethernet controller" is missing. Given that I can't connect to the internet, I'm not sure how to get this going.

Your help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Hello, Jay!

Please reinstall Parallels Tools [via Actions menu], shut down Windows properly, restart the
Mac. After that please do the following:
1. Go to System Preferences-Sharing-Internet and turn off Apple Internet
sharing;
2. Please set Parallels Network Adapter to Shared networking;
3. In Windows please open Network Connections, right-click LAN icon,
find Local Area Connection properties, select Internet Protocol TCP/IP
properties, open General Tab and select Obtain IP and DNS server
addresses automatically checkboxes,
