All of a sudden the network interface in Parallels refuses to get an IP. I'm connected to the internet through AirPort and internet works fine on the Mac side. I have tried setting the network adapter to Default, En1, Shared or Host-Only but it all results in the same thing; the adapter in Windows gets a 169.x.x.x (self-assigned) IP. The en2 and en3 adapters show up in Network Preferences. I have tried rebooting the Mac. Nothing seems to help. Anyone have any ideas?
Open up Parallels Preferences. (Not editing the host VM but the actual preferences for Parallels itself). Click on the Network tab. Are the check boxes checked?
Make sure you have Shared networking selected in VM configuration and Obtain IP/DNS server address options checked in Networking settings in Windows.
