    Bridged networking suddenly stopped working for my WinXP virtual machine. Status has gone to "Limited or No Connectivity," the network is unavailable, etc.

    Shared mode works fine, but I liked having the VM appear as a separate device on the network. Is this discussed/solved anywhere? No luck yet after looking long.

    Wired Ethernet and Airport are both active, both connected on the Mac side. In the Mac System Prefs, Host-Guest and Parallels NAT network ports look the same in either mode. Parallels is configured to go with the default network connection (Ethernet).

    Parallels Desktop Build 3214
    Mac OS X 10.4.10
    MacBook Pro 2.33GHz/3GB

    Are Parallels Tools Installed?
    Disable your airport on the Mac side... If you still have Mac connectivity, check the settings for your VM to the network.
