At times, Mac assigns itself an IP address, which prevents the Internet from working. Even if the computer is connected to Wi-Fi network, you won’t be able to use the Internet. To fix Internet not working error due to the self-assigned IP address on Mac, you will have to wipe out some files.

- Select the WiFi network that you want to connect to and enter the password. You will be able to then change the name of your Chromecast device. Click Continue to connect the HDMI dongle to your WiFi network. A confirmation will be displayed if the configuration is a success on your Mac and TV.
- Select this option to allow the VM to connect to the host computer and the VMs residing on it and to make it invisible outside of the host computer. Mac OS X is connected to this network via the Parallels Host-Only Networking adapter automatically created on your Mac during the Parallels Desktop installation.
