While using Windows 10 guest on a Windows Server 2012 Host, my network speeds on the guest are a fraction of the host:
Host, according to SpeedTest-
Down:899.77 Mbps
Up:935.83 Mbps
Guest-
Down:43.84 Mbps
Up:112.44 Mbps
The guest is using NAT, Intel PRO/1000 MT Desktop. I've seen others across the internet report success switching NIC's on the Guest, however Windows 10 can't locate the drivers, and I've seen others on this forums say those drivers are old and should not probably be used anyways.
