| | Can't connect to internet I have Virtual PC 2007 running on W2K3 with SP2. VPC is an XP. The host connects to internet througha wireless card. I'm using static IP. I have installed "Virtual Machine Netwrok Service" on the wireless adaptor but the problem is that VPC can't have a different IP address becuase it would require autehtication to the router. So, to make the story short, how do I get VPC to connect to internet? Thanks, Gilgamesh |

You install a Microsoft Loopback Adapter in the host (from the add hardware option in control panel) then enable ICS on the host. You configure ICS to use the NIC as the public interface and the loopback adapter as the private interface. You link the NIC in the guest to the loopback adapter network. When you boot the guest it will get its network config from ICS and be able to share the host's connection. |
