Accessing the Internet

If your primary operating system is connected to the Internet, your new virtual machine can share this connection by using the Shared Networking mode that is selected as a default option for a new virtual machine.

If you experience problems with connecting your virtual machine to the Internet:

  • Make sure that the host computer is connected to the Internet.
  • Open the virtual machine configuration by choosing Virtual Machine > Configure and make sure that the Network Adapter is present in the Devices list and it is in the enabled status. If it is not present, add it using the Add button in the bottom part of the Virtual Machine Configuration window.

For additional information about configuring network in virtual machines, refer to Parallels Workstation Extreme User's Guide.
