    Hi,

    I want to share the internet connection I establish under VM/Windows XP with the rest of my host system Mac OSX.

    I use a special USB-WLAN-Hardware that only works under Windows XP, there are no drivers available for OSX. Everything is fine, it works for the VM, I can easily connect to the internet. But I want to have that internet connection under OSX as well.

    How do I do that?

    Thanks in advance!
    Dennis

    --------------------

    Configuration:
    Macbook Pro 15" / 2,4 GHz Santa Rosa / 4Gb Ram
    Mac OS 10.5.2 Leopard
    Parallels 3.0 / Build 5584
    VM with Windows XP / SP2
    AVM USB-WLAN connected to VM / Windows XP

    Additional Information:
    - I receive the internet connection from a WLAN access-point in the neighbourhood
    - all Firewalls (Mac OSX/WinXP) are turned off (for testing)
    - I chose "bridge" for VMs network settings
    - I dont run any specific network software
