In my office, I created and configured a virtual pc in Windows XP Mode. Everything was working fine.

Now I'm on the road, and my Internet access (in the host operation system) is either via a hotel wifi or through my Verizon air card.

Either way, I've lost Internet access in the virtual pc. I went into the Virtual PC settings, and set the Networking value to Shared Networking (NAT). Actually, I've tried every combination I can find, but I can't get from the virtual pc to the web.

I'm hoping to use the virtual box at a client site, so I really need that access. Is there anything I can do to get it back?

Thanks for any help.
