No internet

Mac Intel Pro 2.66
Parallels Desktop 3 build 5608
Windows XP

Since upgrading to the above build, I've lost my internet connection.

The pop-up window on the bottom bar says 'Connected' 'Shared networking'
Device: Network Adaptor 1, shared networking

LAN status is 'Limited or no connectivity' Speed 10.0Mbps
connected using: Realtek RTL8029(AS) PCI Ethernet ( working properly)

Yet on startup I am told that a cable is disconnected, and neither of my browsers can connect to the internet.

What steps should I take to troubleshoot?

when I switch (menu/devices/network adaptor 1)
between Default adaptor and Shared networking I always get an alert:

' A Network cable is unplugged'

In either case, the Parallels footbar icon tells me I'm connected.

I got an alert which asked me to click it, and got the Local Area Connection Status window which says

/support:
Limited or no connectivity

You might not be able to access the Internet or some network resources. This problem occurred becuase the network did not assign a network address to the computer.

/details:

Physical Address: 00-1C-42-2D-8E-47
IP Address: 169.254.238.157
Subnet Mask: 255.255.0.0
Default Gateway:
DNS Server:
WINS Server:

/repair

Windows is taking the following action:

Renewing your IP address

(then)

Windows could not finish repairing the problem because the following action cannot be completed:
Renewing your IP address

For assistance, contact the person who manages your network/Close

is that useful?

System Preferences - Network - Click Parallels Nat adapter select Using DHCP - if it assigns 169.254.xx
Perform again
sudo killall -HUP pvsnatd
 
Look at this
en3: [...]

I don't understand it - what do you see? Please coach

The Parallels Nat adapter doesn't assign anything. It's blank.

> Renew DHCP Lease/Apply Now <

doesn't change this.

PS: so I didn't run the terminal script again

That was your 'step one' in message #2 (above) ... which I carried out without success

Do you really think that doing it again will make a difference?

If so, which version? I have 5582, 5584, 5608

ops , missed, if you reinstalled let's check further,
What is in logs
Archive of /Library/Parallels/bugreports/
or ~/Library/Parallels/bugreports/

* /Library/Logs/panic.log
or ~/Library/Logs/CrashReporter/Parallels.crash.log from the Mac side;

nothing in User, attached file found in root

How do I upload the Parallels Crash log?
The attachment robot won't let me post a .log file, and when I convert it to a .doc file it tells me it's too big!

cheers
