Extremely Slow Downloads Xbox Series S

Hey there Btallas!

Appreciate if you could provide us with a little more information. Please read:
START HERE! And post back in full detail (the bits that are in bold).

If you have a standard modem, could you try connect your console directly to this and verify if you can connect properly.

Could you tell us if UPnP is currently turned on or off.

Thanks!

Funny, the Halo 4 patch downloaded like a champ! Any app or demo I try to download takes forever but patches are downloading correctly.

This may help;

Port forwarding.

I'm experiencing the same thing. Been trying to download Apocalypse DLC since yesterday and it hasn't even reached 50%. I'll come to find it's been disconnected from XBox Live so I have to reconnect and restart the download. Even when it's connected it's
super slow.

There are a alot of potential reasons why you are experiencing slow download rates.

*You might have to open ports on your router for xbox live services (more info here:

support.xbox.com/.../network-ports-used-xbox-live)

*Could be the servers you are downloading from are bussy and your just unlucky. (The bottleneck is at the service provider)

*Could also be the ethernet cable. It could be damaged, experiencing noice, or it could be an older cable with caped bandwidth (make sure it's a cat 5e or higher and not longer than 100 meters).
