How to use Airport connection in Parallels Workstation?

Hi, I was trying to install Parallels Workstation on my iMac 20″ yesterday. All went well, and I was able to install Windows XP on it. However, I couldn’t get the internet working. I only use Airport wireless connection on my iMac, and I was hoping to get it working in Parallels Workstation as well. I have put the bridged network to “en1” which is supposed to be Airport connection, but the network connection in XP cannot resolve IP address dynamically. I tried to see what happens if I set it up as “STATIC” IP. When I tried to set it up using the existing Airport IP address, both XP and OS X reported that there is IP address conflict. So, I think it’s working partially. However, I couldn’t get to any websites. Any help would be appreciated.
