Good day

I have a 32 bit windows 7 which i run on parrallels 6 via my MBP 13".
I connect to the internet via windows wirelessly on campus using novel which works great. How do i bridge this connection so that i can go on the internet with mac? because windows sees the airport wireless connection as a cabled connection.

Thank you

Oan

You should set up the VM's network settings for Shared. It will then get its network connection through your Mac. Right now it sounds like you have it set to Bridged.

Or did you mean keep your current Win 7 setup but share its connection to your Mac, so that your Mac gets connectivity from your Win 7 VM?
