Hello,

I understand this may be a little off topic for this list, but it is
the only place I know where to ask, and my aim is to start porting our
web application to iPhone / iPod touch, so I hope you don't mind.

I would like to use my MacBook Pro airport to connect the iPod touch
to internet and to my local instance of the application, running on
Parallels.

In the sharing preferences, I have choose to share the ethernet
connection of my MacBook (the one connected to the router) to
computers connected both with the airport and the "Ethernet Adaptor
(en2)". The "Ethernet Adaptor (en2)" is the virtual interface used by
Parallels to connect its virtual machine network adapter when
configured as "Host-only networking".

The Parallels virtual machines can connect to any internet address
without any problem (that I am aware of). When I try to access to some
sites using the iPod touch I get completely unreliable connections;
and this happens also when accessing sites hosted on the MacBook
itself. After some time, the iPod reports the following error:
"Safari could not open the page because the server stopped responding".

Trying to reload the site from the iPod touch sometimes works, but it
is a very frustrating situation.

Does anyone knows what is causing this unreliability of the airport
shared connection?

Thanks for your attention.

Giulio Cesare Solaroli
