Hi again. I have another question you clever people may know the answer to:
If i am using Windows on my rMB through Parallels Desktop program, do i need to have wifi to access Windows on my mac? I may want to be away from home to access Windows/office apps via Parallels and not sure if I need to be connected to wifi.... In other words, if I want to use a Publisher file within Windows (Publisher Office program) via Parallels on my rMB, will i be able to work on the Publisher file if I am away from home (e.g. at work/friends place with wifi etc)?

Sorry BJ and I do not use parallels to know specifics ie does Parallels access wifi directly or via OSX, but either way you will be ok and as BJ suggested just try eg Try IE in parallels with and without OSX wifi on and with Parallels windows Wifi on.

OSX is not stopping you getting the files over wifi etc just to open them you are using Publisher

Not sure of your exact question, but Parallels Desktop "shares" your Mac's network connection with Windows. So as long as your Mac has Internet access Windows should be able to access it.

I've already tried it, if you turn off wifi on OS X, it goes off on Windows too. Which doesn't happen in the other way.
