    The VM does get access to all of your internet bandwidth. There is no way to 'throttle' the bandwidth of your Mac to give Parallels more except by using some third party software I think. Otherwise it is shared as and when requested.

    It is likely that this performance problem is probably related to some other application running either on you Mac or your VM.

    One thing to try is to go to an connection speed test web site and get your connection tested.

    you may need to disable lots of auto back up
    check mail update stuff
    both in Windows and Mac OS

    It may simply be the time of day and congestion
    after school on a rainy day and the net slows down for all of us

    Autralia comes on line first then UK then USA

    what ISP?
    which country?
    what kind of connection / rating?
