    Hi

    I was wondering if it's possible to connect to a different wireless network on your virtual machine than on the host?

    So the 2 worked as they were totally independent.
    Having the host "give up" the wireless adapter (host has no internet connection) so the guest could control it would work as well.

    I'm using Parallels Desktop 8, and the guest OS is Win7

    I don't know if it's possible, but if it is, i'd like a little walkthrough.

    Thanks

    It is not possible with current functionality, but I can submit a feature request for future versions if you want me to.

    Also if you use an external USB internet modem, which has drivers for Windows, you can achieve the desired setup now - Guest will have internet access, Host will not.
