Parallels 19 on macos Sonoma bad

FWIW, no problem so far with Parallels 19.2.1 (54832) and Windows 11 running on my M2 Pro Mac mini.

 

My shared networking is now totally dead also.

It had been working so either an update to Parallels, Version 19.3.0 (54924), or macOS Sonoma (now at 14.3.1) killed it.
I have an open ticket and sent technical details. This is very frustrating for subscription software, especially reading the forum and seeing how long this has been an issue. This may be the end of Parallels for me.

As a test, I tried installing the bundled Ubuntu installer. I can't get past the networking step.

 

I was already on Parallels 19 and Ventura and Shared Networking was working perfectly. The moment I upgraded to Sonoma, it broke, and has remained broken ever since.

So, it looks like something in Sonoma became incompatible with Parallels 19 or vice-versa (and all v19 patches since). What's incredible is that looking at this thread, Parallels Support keeps asking for logs and crap OVER AND OVER, when SURELY they can just install Parallels 19 on a Mac with Sonama and SEE FOR THEMSELVES that it doesn't work... right??

 

I'm also having continual issues with networking for my Ubuntu 22.04 VM running Parallels v19.3.0 on Mac OS 13.6.2.
