From the above: I just wanted to say thanks to the Parallels team. Since there was no feedback in this thread regarding the suggested remedy, I wanted to say that the above recommended fix worked for me, and I did NOT have to uninstall Verizon Access Manager and revert to the built-in card drivers to make it work. One day, I will probably uninstall VZAcess Manager, but at this time, shared networking allows for VM Internet connectivity using a V640 Card and Verizon Access Manager.
