Now the world is getting computerized and the internet is the fastest and easiest way to get all types of information and multimedia, but if the download speed is very slow, you are not getting the most out of the Internet. A fast computer will help a little to increase the download speed, but there are several ways to increase your download speed without upgrading your computer.Lets discuss about how to increase download speed.
First thing we can do is to check our Internet service provider about Internet connection options. The speed of your Internet connection is the most significant variable to your download speed. Better the speed of internet connection, higher will be the download speed. If you have dial-up Internet access, we must upgrade it to a Direct Service Line (DSL) or a cable connection. Even if you already have cable, your Internet service provider may have faster cable services available.

We can do a little from our end to increase the download speed, from our side we should go for a better plan from Internet service providers. Wireless connection are usually slower than the cable connections.
Download speed also depends on the performance of the website from where we are trying to download.

Yes we can do very little from our side. We can free our computers resources to handle data transfer better, you must close all other application that are not required for download.
Speed of the download also depends upon the number of the people download the same file. The more people who are downloading the same file, the slower the file downloads. We must try downloading files at the different times of the day.

check your computer for viruses, malware and other online pests that may be stealing your bandwidth. Change browsers, sometimes conventional microsoft internet explorer can slow things down. VOIP lines can make things slow if you have vontage or magic jack, Devices you may be using might be causing your line to get bogged down. Two really fast browsers are mozilla firefox and opera. Opera is commercially supported and Mozilla firefox is an opensource one...
Call your local cable provider and ask if they can help with slow connections.

What is more clear is that slow internet is usually low bandwidth, Not virus, not by web browser, not closed firewall or we didnt use DAP or the like.. And the way to increase it is to increase also our payment for internet..we have no choice if we want fast and quality download..
