    Hello!
    I want to know is it possible to connect my Win 10 and Parallels 11 both to a VPN at the same time?
    If it's so, do I need a service with extra features, or I can use my usual VPN?
    Any early answer would be appreciated.

    Hi, you mean your Windows VM? You can connect your Mac to VPN and put your VM to the shared network mode-> then you will be able to use VPN on your VM

    I think you asked whether you can use the same vpn for windows and mac at a time. Is that so? If yes, then the most possible answer is no. I am not sure but I assume. Thanks

    Yes, I mean that in you using VPN on the Mac side and then go to Windows VM (in shared network mode) it will work.
    I've just tested it on me MBA.
    But as I understand you cannot configure this on your Mac, right?
