Windows Forum / Virtual PC / October 2007Cannot connect VirtualPC to internet
I have recently changed two things to my networking configuration: (1) switched from DSL to Cable modem, and (2) switched routers from a Linksys(BEFSR41 ver. 3) to a 2Wire(270HGV). Before I could connect to the internet on both my host and my virtual without any issue. Now I can still connect from my host, but not from the virtual. VirtualPC version is 6.0.156.0. Both host and virtual are running Windows XP Pro w/ latest patches. I have tried every combination possible on the Networking Settings of the virtual. I've tried shared networking, local only, and the drop-down option where it lists my specific NIC card information. I've also tried entering multiple network adapters. I am out of ideas. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Here is the current ipconfig /all results from the Host: C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator>ipconfig /all Windows IP Configuration Host Name . . . . . . . . . . . . : system Primary Dns Suffix . . . . . . . : Node Type . . . . . . . . . . . . : Broadcast IP Routing Enabled. . . . . . . . : No WINS Proxy Enabled. . . . . . . . : No DNS Suffix Search List. . . . . . : gateway.2wire.net Ethernet adapter Local Area Connection: Connection-specific DNS Suffix . : gateway.2wire.net Description . . . . . . . . . . . : Realtek RTL8139 Family PCI Fast Ethe rnet NIC Physical Address. . . . . . . . . : 00-40-05-04-92-DD Dhcp Enabled. . . . . . . . . . . : Yes Autoconfiguration Enabled . . . . : Yes IP Address. . . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.1.66 Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.0 Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.1.254 DHCP Server . . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.1.254 DNS Servers . . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.1.254 Lease Obtained. . . . . . . . . . : Thursday, October 25, 2007 8:14:49 P M Lease Expires . . . . . . . . . . : Friday, October 26, 2007 8:14:49 PM Here is the current ipconfig /all results from the VirtualPC: C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator>ipconfig /all Windows IP Configuration Host Name . . . . . . . . . . . . : vm1 Primary Dns Suffix . . . . . . . : Node Type . . . . . . . . . . . . : Broadcast IP Routing Enabled. . . . . . . . : No WINS Proxy Enabled. . . . . . . . : No DNS Suffix Search List. . . . . . : gateway.2wire.net Ethernet adapter Local Area Connection: Connection-specific DNS Suffix . : gateway.2wire.net Description . . . . . . . . . . . : Intel 21140-Based PCI Fast Ethernet Adapter (Generic) Physical Address. . . . . . . . . : 00-03-FF-05-92-DD Dhcp Enabled. . . . . . . . . . . : Yes Autoconfiguration Enabled . . . . : Yes IP Address. . . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.1.67 Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.0 Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.1.254 DHCP Server . . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.1.254 DNS Servers . . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.1.254 Lease Obtained. . . . . . . . . . : Thursday, October 25, 2007 9:00:01 P M Lease Expires . . . . . . . . . . : Friday, October 26, 2007 9:00:01 PM That should all be working. The vm must be in the right network because it is getting its network config from the gateway router. It should look like just another machine on the LAN to the router. You don't have any third-party firewall product (like NIS) on the vm, do you? Or any MAC address restictions on the router? >I have recently changed two things to my networking configuration: (1) > switched from DSL to Cable modem, and (2) switched routers from a [quoted text clipped - 80 lines] > 9:00:01 > PM I have ZoneAlarm on both host and virtual. Since your reply I turned off the ZoneAlarm firewall on the virtual, but still no luck. I suspect it has something to do with my router.

Your networking is OK, you don't have to change anything there. The ipconfig info you posted shows that the VM NIC gets its data from the router all right. But it might well be that ZoneAlarm on the host is interfering. Switch it off and test again. > I have ZoneAlarm on both host and virtual.

I am running ZoneAlarm on both the host and guest computer through a Netgear RangeMax router. The host is WinXP Pro and the guest is Win98SE. To get VPC to connect to the internet I have to reset my host ZoneAlarm Firewall Trusted Zone Security to medium. Signature<Bill> Brought to you from Anchorage, Alaska. "Or any MAC address restictions on the router?" - I have a strong suspicion this is the issue. I don't think it has to do with ZoneAlarm. How could I tell whether or not MAC address restrictions are in place? > That should all be working.
