I am on site trying to get my clients MacBook Pro to work wirelessly within Windows 7 running Parallels Desktop 7. In the device manager there is no wireless card listed and two PCI Devices listed other other devices with no drivers installed.

On the Mac side, in the System Utilities it lists the wireless device as a Broadcom BCM43xx 1.0. I downloaded a driver for this I found online, and went through the setup that came with it with no luck. I also tried searching for the browser on both unknown devices and directing towards the downloaded driver with no luck. I am now stuck and would appreciate some help quickly as I am on site now. TIA

You do not install physical adapter drivers in virtual machines. There is probably something in the properties of the VM that will allow you to bind a virtual adapter to the wireless nic. The virtual adapter will then get detected by the virtual machine.

This may or may not be helpful. http://kb.parallels.com/5664
Sorry I can't offer more, never used Parallels.

Actually you were a huge help. I didn't realize you don't load physical drivers. I looked in the properties for parallels and for some reason I had to uncheck the Shared Network under Devices -> Network 1, reboot the VM and then recheck that setting. Works fine now. Thanks a ton.

Did you install the virtual tools?
