Accepted Solution. Re: why are the download speeds extremely slow on origin? August If you are seeing slower speeds when downloading then this points to an issue most likely with your network or how your ISP is routing your data.
If you are still seeing slow downloads then this you can try the following steps: Disable all background programs on your system including Steam. You can also do this with a clean boot Temporarily disconnect all other devices that you don't need from your network Use a wired connection Make sure Origin is accepted in your anti-virus and firewall You can also try using Safe Mode Downloading via Origin which is under Application Settings, Advanced.

The solution may be as simple as just restarting the computer, or it may be more complicated. Download speed represents the amount of data downloaded to the device per second. It is measured as megabits per second Mbps.
The download may include files, images, videos, and texts. The applications such as YouTube, Facebook, and Instagram also run on the downloaded data. The number of devices and the number of internet users in a household affects the download speed. The average use of 4 machines in a single home may increase the internet speed requirements up to 25 Mbps. Here is how you can improve your download speed.
The slow download issue can be resolved by just restarting the computer. There may be some applications running on the computer you are not aware of. Similarly, you may have several open browsers. Restart the computer and try downloading again with only one browser at a time. The internet speed is measured as the amount of data transfer per second. Speed tests are the most convenient way of checking and increasing download speeds. Several websites like speedcheck.
The speed test score above Mbps indicates that the slow download speed is not related to the internet connection. A test score below Mbps indicates that internet speed may be an underlying problem. Again, the speed of downloading is inversely proportional to the number of people using the same network at the same time.
Every internet connection is not capable of handling large downloads. You will require a high-speed internet service if multiple people are using the same internet connection. Or if you are running multiple devices at the same time. The more the number of devices and people using the same network, the slower the internet connection will become. Therefore, before you start downloading, disconnect all other devices for some time.
Downloading speed and capacity are increased when you decrease the load on your network. The unnecessary applications running on your device slow down the internet. Before you start downloading, disable them to boost your download speed. The applications take a share of your bandwidth and therefore decrease the download speed. Sometimes, the internet might be slow because you use some IP-changing services.
You need to pick IP changing service very carefully, checking your internet speed after IP change. How to change my IP address? Downloading multiple files at a time may cause some of your downloads to fail.
It happens when your device is not compatible with downloading large files. Downloading a single file at a time is better if you want to save time and effort.
The router is connected to the modem, specifically when many devices are connected to the same network. A router connects numerous devices and serves as an antenna to increase the range of Wi-Fi. Sometimes restarting the modem helps in fixing the download speed. If the download speed does not improve even after restarting the modem, you may need a new modem. Place your device near the modem. If the speed increase, it means that your router may be the actual issue.
Due to higher downstream demand, there are more download than upload channels on the coax cable carried on the same wire as TV. A twenty Mbps download speed will likely have less than 5 Mbps for upload. Essentially, 3. Some ISPs are already starting to upgrade their equipment to the new standard, and paired with modems that support it, the same cables that currently top out at a few hundred Mbps could be carrying ten Gbps down and one Gbps up.
While DSL and coaxial cable connections are typically constrained by a low upper bandwidth limit, fiber optic cables can carry so much data so fast that allocating some space to downstream at the expense of upstream is practically unnecessary. Thus, fiber for both individuals and businesses tends to be symmetric. For cost and logistical reasons, some connections remain asymmetric, though these speeds are still typically more than enough, so fiber is still the most solid option for those in need of upload speed.
However, if your upload speeds are significantly lower than what you paid for, and they seem to be that way consistently, here are a few things you can try before making that dreaded tech support call:.
The last option for getting better upload speeds is just to wait. Narrowing down where the problem lies will help you fix it. Does the slowness just happen on one computer, or all your devices? You may just have to reboot the computer, or you may need to perform a malware scan with your preferred antivirus to check that everything is fine. Be sure to stop any downloads, uploads, Netflix streaming, or other heavy internet activity before running the test to ensure as little interference with the results as possible.
There are some caveats here. Speed tests may sometimes appear rather high, as some Internet service providers may prioritize them and they may have servers very close to you. Speeds may also be slower at busier times of the day, when everyone in your neighborhood is using the Internet connection, than at off hours when many people are sleeping or at work.
Like computers, modems and routers sometimes get stuck in a bad, slow, overloaded state. This problem can be fixed with a reboot. The router connects to the modem, which is connected to the cable coming out of the wall.
To reboot them, unplug each from their respective power outlets for ten seconds before plugging them back in. It may take a few minutes for your modem to reconnect to your Internet service provider and bring your Internet connection online, so be patient. Check if your speed improves after the reboots. A bad Wi-Fi connection can seem like an Internet connection problem, especially since it can affect all the devices in your home.
There are quite a few reasons you may have a bad Wi-Fi signal. This is a particularly common problem in denser urban areas—for example, if you live in an apartment complex with neighbors who have a bunch of wireless routers and other devices.
You could also just have a dead zone, something interfering with your Wi-Fi signal, or poor converage throughout your home. Consult our guide to speeding up your Wi-Fi and getting a better signal for more tips. If you have a larger home or yard and need better Wi-FI coverage, consider getting a mesh Wi-Fi system that provides multiple base stations you can place around your home or property.
Your Internet connection is shared by all the devices in your home, so other devices on your network could be saturating your Internet connection, slowing things down for everyone else. Stop or slow down some of those other downloads to speed things up.
If this is a particularly frequent problem, you may have to upgrade your internet package. However, you can also see if your router has a Quality of Service QoS feature , which will allow your router to automatically manage and assign how much bandwidth different devices and services receive. For example, it can automatically throttle BitTorrent bandwidth to avoid slowing down Netflix streams.
If you have cable Internet and you have coaxial cable splitters on the line going to your cable modem, these could be degrading your signal strength and leading to slower Internet connection.
