Normal download speeds, incredibly slow browsing
I've got an airport extreme that I've been having problems with. I get some pretty fast download speeds when downloading a file from Safari or Firefox, anywhere between 150kb/s and 300kb/s. However, my internet browsing speed is at a crawl. It can take between 30 seconds and 1 minute to load Apple's homepage whether I'm using Safari or Firefox. Can someone help me out with this? Are there some settings I need to change? Thank you!
I was having the same problem as you. I recently (tonight) installed a new Extreme N and was noticing that this was happening.
Even Google's website was taking a while to load. What I did is changed the DNS servers from AT&T's to public ones. I'm using 4.2.2.1 & 4.2.2.2 and this seems to have corrected the problem. Browsing is back to normal speeds, but I'd be skeptic to call this a "fix", since it's been about 20 minutes since I made the chance, so I'm not sure if this will really fix it, but if you want to try it you've got nothing to lose.
Let me know if it helps! -
Mac App Store download speed very slow...
I have been trying to download the App Store updates OS X Update 10.10.3 and OS X Yosemite Recovery Update to my iMac for the past several days. When opening the Mac App Store, I click on updates and they appear. However, when I select 'download' my download speed slows to the point of less than 1 MB per minute.
I seem to remember this happening when Yosemite was first released, but after a few days, I had no problem downloading Yosemite from the App Store.
This only occurs when trying to download from the Mac App Store. When I download iOS App updates to iTunes I do not have the same problem so it seems to be only affecting the Mac App Store.
My internet speed is fine. I can download fine from other websites, just not the Mac App Store.
After searching online, I found one solution that looked promising:
Finder->Applications->Utilities->Keychain Access->Preferences->Certificates->Certificate Revocation List- Changed from Best attempt to OFF.
Unfortunately for me this had no effect so I changed the setting back.
I then looked for a way I could download the files from outside the Mac App Store & found this:
Apple - Support - Downloads
When downloading from Apple Support downloads page, my downloads were very fast. The Yosemite 2 GB Combo update took about 15 minutes, a far cry from the App Store which would have taken hours.
Is there some setting I need to change to increase the download speed from the Mac App Store or is it just overloaded servers? Why then can I download the files from the support page and not run into the same slow speeds? Updating iTunes was also giving me very slow download speeds, so again, I went to the Apple Support Downloads & clicked the link to download the latest version of iTunes. The file downloaded in about a minute.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks!Apple servers are overloaded. Instead of using App Store, use safari to download the updates manually from apple websites.
Here's a link for OS X 10.10.2 Combo Update.
OS X Yosemite 10.10.2 Combo Update
I had the same issue and downloaded manually from this link. It took me about 30-40 minutes. I'm using a 5mb connection. Your 40mb connection should be faster.
As for the iOS updates, you will have to download them from your iOS devices, because there are no standalone updates for iOS. Alternatively after you update your Mac, use iTunes to download iOS updates by connecting your iOS devices with your Mac. That should be faster than downloading through your iOS devices. -
E900 wireless router- slow download speeds
So I have xfinity internet with download speeds up to 25mbps. But according to the online test I'm getting speeds up to 10. I googled online and found that I could disable the WMM but when I tried that it actually made it worse, which i couldn't find anyone else that said that happened to. I'm using a mac computer, and motorola docsis 3.0 sb6121 modem. I've been trying to do my online work and it's really annoying that my websites are freezing up and taking forever to load. Does anyone have any suggestions?
The 25mbps download speed, is it the actual speed that you are getting wired directly to the modem using the online test? If not, then you need to clear it out from your internet provider.
Is the 10 mbps the speed that you're getting wired or wirelessly connected to the router? If wireless, try connecting your computer directly to the router using an ethernet cable. If both wired and wireless connections are slow, then you may need to upgrade your router's firmware or adjust MTU settings. Use the links below as your guide.
Determining and setting up the correct MTU size
How to change MTU size
Downloading the router's firmware
Upgrading router's firmware
If the slow internet connection is evident only to wireless devices and not on the wired connection, then you need to adjust your router's wireless settings or do the following: change the wireless security to WPA2 personal, adjust wireless channel to lessen interference (usetrial and error to test which channel works for your network environment), place router in an open space, bring electronic devices away from the router, and check the wireless adapter on your computer -make sure that drivers are also up to date. Also remember that if multiple devices are connected to your router and browsing/downloading from the internet at the same time, it will surely lower the speed on every computer. -
I was experiencing slow downloading speeds
I was experiencing slow downloading speeds(13.68Mbps) so I called my ISP. The ISP tech asked me to disconnect the cable from the airport express & plug the cable directly into the iMac. When I ran the speed test again I got 40.34Mbps download speed. The tech said that was proof that the problem was with the Airport Express & not the modem. However, now I do not have WiFi. And now I am only getting an amber light on the Airport Express. Any suggestions on how to have WiFi without slowing downloading speeds? Note: Downloading speeds were good until this last week. Please help!
Hiya
Airport Express model 802.11 Version 7.6.4
Does it have two ethernet ports on it?? or just one?
You suggest that I replace the Airport Express with an Airport Extreme: I do have an Airport Extreme in another room by our TV & Blu Ray to enable Netflix movies. A Mac Store technician set up the wireless system that way in 2010. Can I use 2 Airport Extremes instead?
Yes, that is no problem. I am guessing the Extreme is linking by wireless?? Or do you have ethernet between the Extreme and Express?
I am afraid of suggesting this, but I would consider just swapping the roles.. put the extreme on the modem.. and the express on the TV and bluray player.. and it will probably work fine.
What are speeds like to the Extreme on the TV? Does netflix play properly?
If you shut down the Extreme, does the speed get better on the computer?
Are you suggesting that the modem should be bypassed and the Express should be connected to the Mac by ethernet?
Not exactly.. you should already have an ethernet from modem to the express.. can you plug another ethernet express to the Mac.. assuming your Express has two ethernet and not just one.
"Try manually setting channels and forcing bands with different name." : I do not have any idea of how to do this.
Try the simple alternatives above. We can consider this as well if those don't work.
Do you have someone you could call easily and cheaply to try and sort the problems??
Otherwise buying a new AE is actually probably just as cheap as getting a technician in to look at it. Not that new equipment wrongly setup will work any better than old equipment wrongly setup.. but you have a month of free phone support from apple when you buy it new. -
Has anyone experience their Airport slowing the download speeds?
You need to spell out the whole thing.

How are you measuring.. by wireless yes, you will experience some reduction.. maybe a lot depending on range of client and wireless type.. is this AC version or earlier airport? What is the link speed of the wireless.. and are multiple devices connected??
If this is purely ethernet, then something is wrong.. we need to know exactly what model airport you are talking about.. A1xxx from the side or base please?? -
I need to update to the latest version of Snow Leapord-currently running v10.6. Because of where we live the slow download speed for such a large file has kept me from downloading the update. What can I do short of hooking up computer elsewhere?
Do you ever visit a friend or realtive with a Mac who has faster internet? Maybe the local library has Macs on a fast line. If so, get a USB thumb drive and put this link on it from your computer:
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1399
Then put this link on the drive:
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1429
When you are at some place that has a Mac with a decent download speed. insert the thumb drive in that Mac and click on the first link ("DL1399") and direct the download to your thumb drive. Now do the same this with the second link.
The installer files will now be on the thumb drive and, when you get home, drag them from the thumb drive to your desktop. Install the Combo update first. -
Download speeds extremly slow for CS6 trial version
I am trying to download the trial version of CS6 using the Adobe download assistant. It is extremely slow (Currently saying it will take another 15 hours to download.) It has been stuck at 987 MB for over two hours. I have a very fast fibre optic line and just did a speed test. I am seeing download speed of 75.79 Mbs so it is not my broadband. I am on Mac OS Lion 5.7. and have plenty of empty disk space. Any ideas of what the problem is?
so it is not my broadband.
Actually it probably is. Due to how ADM work sthere may be issues on such connections due to how they handle upstream communication and may dynamically switch IPs/ channels in their multiplexers.... Try a direct download using the method described here:

Download speed of drivers from Creative
'? Well, I just bought the Creative WoW Wireless Headset which I know was a mistake. I'll return it when I get the chance of course. But I'd at least like to try it for a few days.
So now I'm trying to download the drivers for it but the download speed is currently 0.6 kB/s which means I should be finished downloading the 66 MB driver in a few weeks or so. I tried to go to the Canadian website but it doesn't exist anymore? (broken link maybe lol)
Is there a way to download the drivers for it without having to wait 30 days and lose my chance of being able to return it for my $200 back? Ex. someone upload the driver to an uploading site please!
Edit: Oh great, I have to clear my cookies because I can't visit creative.com anymore...just redirects me to?http://ca.uat.clok.creative.com/?which DOES NOT EXIST!I have actually tried various set-ups.
My first was to store my movies on an external drive attached to my iMac upstairs - Result = constant pauses. I also tried changing to different channels on my Time Capsule.
My second set-up was to see if there was a problem with the connection due to the fact my iMac was upstairs and my ATV and TC downstairs. So, I used my PowerBook downstairs, therefore it is in the same room as my ATV and TC - Result = Same problem as above
My 3rd set-up was to put my movies on the TC but still the same problem
Then of course I tried the wired set-up I spoke about and that's fine. I have also tried various other settings like changing the channel on my TC changing the Multicast rate etc etc but no joy.
The thing is my internet connection is fine, no problems at all and I also have a Sonos wireless music system which works without any problems whatsoever. I can only assume that for whatever reason it just does not like the amount of bandwidth needed to stream video. I have 3 computers that use the TC but when I try to stream anything I ensure everything is shut down and it is only the iMac that is sending data so not to clog up the bandwidth.
I should also point out that I am using a new iMac (nearly new) 2GHz Intel Core Duo with 2 GB RAM, so it shouldn't be a problem with the Mac. -
Very slow download speed with Airport Express
Hi.
I've recently experienced painfully slow downlink (download) speed using Airport Express.
My WiFi configuration:
- main router: WRT54G connected to my provider (speed limit: 4Mbit up/down link),
- AirPort Express with WiFi N and Airtunes hooked up to stereo in living room,
- AirPort Express WiFi G and Airtunes connected to stereo on bedroom.
Second Airport is currently not used to simplify tests and description of my problem.
The problem: when connecting from MacBook to Airport Express I can't reach more than approx. 512kbit downloading from internet, usually even 300kbit, while uplink reaches easily 2.5Mbit (limited probably by my network provider). While connected to WRT54G I can get 2.5 up to 4Mbit downlink, same when using cable directly plugged in to WRT54G.
I tried changing channels, switching different options in Airport with no effect - still getting pathetic download speeds. Even worse - browsing experience is awful, with frequent slowdowns, etc.
I tried different encryption methods, and seems like only switching it off at all (unprotected network) seems to let my Airport work on full speed (2.5Mbits symmetrically up/down, up to 4Mbits - provider speed limit) - which is unacceptable, I refuse to set up and use unprotected network at home.
Problem is clearly in Airport or in interaction between Airport and Macbook. I've just ran out of ideas - can you help me?I can't offer any help with your problem except for the fact that mine has recently done the exact same thing. It's ridiculous, for months and months it was extremely fast and then all of a sudden it takes 20 minutes to open a simple browser page. Something is definitely wrong with the airport because all other wireless internet connections from other routers are as usual. \

Very slow download speed with intermittent halts
Need some help.
I run Apple os/x latest version and have since yesterday begun to experience constant very slow download speeds.
I have rebooted the router and I have reset it. I have tested with wireless and wired into router. No real change.
The results are below and are pretty consistent no matter when or with what computer I test it with.
This is very frustrating and I would like to know if anyone has experienced this and if there is anything I can do before calling for service.
Thank you in advance.

While safari loads web pages very quickly, it is extremely slow when downloading documents, installers, etc... onto my computer, downloading at speeds around 5 to 10 kb/second, causing even small downloads to take ages. (A 20mb download can take up to an hour or more).
(My downloads run at about 100 to 110 kb/second on my windows PC which is connected to the same router)
I have tried stopping and then resuming downloads, but that doesn't work. Also, there is clearly nothing wrong with my internet connection, as safari loads webpages remarkably fast.
Is there any software/changes that need to be added or is it an issue within safari?Hi there Jeff,
The slow downloading speed and other performance issues with Safari may be related to unsupported third-party add-ons. Take a look at the article linked below and try to remove any outdated add-ons for Safari.
Unsupported third-party add-ons may cause Safari to unexpectedly quit or have performance issues - Apple Support

Hello,
Please can someone give me some advice. My broadband speed is incredibly slow. I had a fault with the phone line, which BT repaired, however, subsequent to that, my download speed has not been above 1.85mps. I have unplugged everything from the HH, rewired, and still no joy. This has been happening for over a week now.
My speed test results are as below:-
Can anyone shed any light on what the problem might be?

My download speed - Problem or just this slow?
Well I've always had bad download speeds, guessing because of my area and such, but they seem to have gotten worse lately. My max download speeds used to be around 120kb/sec but now I'm lucky if they even reach 60kb/sec ( not in peak times )
Now I'm not exactly networking savvy, but I did that BT speed test and the results are:
Download speedachieved during the test was - 413 Kbps
For your connection, the acceptable range of speeds is 50-500 Kbps.
Additional Information:

Is that around about right? Is there any other information I should disclose? Do I have a problem or am I just unfortunate enough to have these bad download speeds?
Solved!
Go to Solution.Because you accidently disconnected it, you'll need to remain connected for 3 -5 days (which shouldn't be long now) and allow the profile to rise, I dont think it will rise, but it may just nudge the system and may work...
Alternatively you could contact the mods, and ask for an SNR reset which should give your sync speed a boost and in turn give the system a kick up the backside and tell it to get its ass in gear . You can contact the mods using this link http://bt.custhelp.com/app/contact_email/c/4951 .
