Hi, I am having an issue with Parallels in which I cannot connect my guest OS (Win 7) to the work vpn. The MAC side usually connects fine. I can connect fine at home, and this issue only arose when we recently moved offices and switched to AT&T. Now when I attempt to connect to the VPN from within parallels it hangs at "Verifying username/pw" for a while then tells me it couldn't connect. Here is a list of things I have tried: -Creating a new VPN connection -Changed the router from 192.168.1.x handouts to 192.168.5.x handouts because our vpn is also 192.168.1.x and I thought that may have been conflicting -Tried both bridged and shared networking mode -Disabled firewall in Win 7 -Added router firewall exception for the Macbook Air to allow PPTP outbound connections -A myriad of other things Some things I may try next: -Hard wired connection instead of wifi -Changing security type of WIFI -Someone suggested dragging the VPN to the top of the MAC connection list in order to force all the traffic through it -Try an entirely new Parallels Win7 image I need to be able to access the vpn from my Win 7 guest OS in order to use a certain program for work. Is there anything else I can try? I am pretty much tapped out in regards to possible solutions.
Hi, Parallels VM in Shared Networking has access to VPN-network established on Mac Host. Hi, Parallels VM in Shared Networking has access to VPN-network established on Mac Host. This should be enough for almost all scenarious, excluding exotic ones..
