How to fix Xbox One Slow Download speeds

LacedUpForever · May 7, 2019

Over the passed serval years Microsoft has yet to address the issue of low download speed when downloading digital titles. I just found away to increase the download bandwidth. I have a 300Mbit/s package and was only getting 50-100Mbit/a on downloads.
Just start downloading the game or DLC you want to download then while its downloading just open your settings and click on you network settings and all you have to do is sit on this screen while it’s downloading. My speeds stayed at a constant 225-300 Mbit/s
and to view how fast your game is downloading just click on bandwidth usage. I’m guessing the network part of the settings prioritize all you network bandwidth into whatever your Xbox is asking for since Xbox runs off a dumbed down version of Windows it has
a network bandwidth reserve setting inside the Group policy settings that we can’t access sadly hopefully this works for you. Add me on Xbox Live MurderDoctor420

Many factors can affect download speeds at home check out the below link from Microsoft to troubleshoot:

Also, it can be affected by the number of devices on the network and what they are doing at the time i.e streaming, downloading, uploading and every device will use a chunk of your download speed.

I've experienced this in the past when my kids and wife are on Netflix or amazon prime etc but when they have come off my download speed has raised significantly.

It sounds useful if I'm downloading a large size but I got to test this out and see if it works.

I usually don't pay much attention to how quickly downloads are going, as I will download new games in the background while playing other games. Or even sometimes when I leave the room to do other things. But I'll check this out and give it a try, thank
you!
