    How to install? I did not get a CD or USB key with my July 2011 purchase of new Macbook Air. Installed Windows 7 with newest version of Parallels and BootCamp as secondary OS. Same issues on both, how do I get wireless working?

    thanks in advance

    Can you connect the Mac OS to the wireless network?

    In order to use wireless network in your VM windows 7 you have to purchase a external USB/SATA wireless adapter because wireless adapter can be share in bridge mode. Also make sure that you have boot the external USB adapter in windows 7.

    Not sure what your problem is. On my new MacAir that I bought in early December, I installed Parallels 7 and then Windows 7 (32bit) via a no-name external DVD drive. I was able to access the internet via wifi from the get-go. Also my BT mouse works fine both in OS-X and Windows.
