Game download speeds

downloading at max Speed siginificantly increases lag in online games. this is why gaming Systems will reduce download Speeds while gaming.

How large is the game? That along with the download speed will determine the time required to download the game. However, you will probably not achieve the full 60Mbps download speed.

You can speed the download up some by running wired instead of wireless and by not using your console while the download is running.

Hey, unfortunately, the speed from your ISP is often times higher than the download speed for downloading games on Xbox, and there's only so much you can do about it. When you download games it's very likely that the server from which the file is downloaded
fluctuates and changes location, which would result in slower download speeds. Also, download speeds are in large part dependent on the speed of Microsoft's severs, and depending on how many people are downloading from their servers at once, the speed could
be very slow due to the load on the server. Again, there's not much you can do aside from increasing the speed of your ISP.

Yes, any games or apps downloaded through the store are capped at the same speed showing in the speed test using Edge.

While I also get less than optimal speeds when I speed test through Edge, my Marketplace downloads are consistent with my internet speed (granted, I "only" have 100Mbit, and due to the distance from the DSLAM I "only" get 70-80Mbit download speed).

So are the actual marketplace downloads when you download a game or an app equally slow?

If your playing and downloading speed will be slower if you quit current game you playing speed goes quicker on download
