Parallels 5 netowork adapter not connected

[AgentEd]

What is the friggin' deal here?

Why hasn't this issue with the network unable to connect been resolved?! I spend at least a third of my time trying to make the network connection work and all I can do it reboot, reboot, reboot until finally for some completely unknown reason Parallels' network adapter recognizes there is a connection and grabs an IP.

Disabling, re-enabling, changing from shared to bridge, to host-only - it makes no difference.

This has been an on going frustration with no resolution or response in sight!

Do you have it reported somewhere?

Please follow these standard for networking steps:

Click Start -> Run and execute cmd.exe. Type in the appeared window command "ipconfig /all" (without quotes). Stretch the window to make all the output fit and without closing the window, click menu of Parallels Destkop "Help"->"Report a Problem", send a problem report (it is not necessary to provide description) and post here the report ID.
