Why i have very very slow downloading speed on wifi on iphone5

While on wifi I am experiencing very slow downloading speed on iPhone 5. My iPhone 5 is a brand new phone, I have to wait for hours to complete a running download of about 40mb or so. Please help me and tell me if there is any solution to that. On the same wifi network I have the new iPad and iPhone 4 and iPhone 4S, all are working perfectly getting perfect speed while downloading but I can't on iPhone 5.

What you did was fine. Leopard is a little different to 10.4.11, but:
Repairing permissions is an important part of regular maintenance, and should always be carried out both before and after any software installation or update.
Go to Disk Utility (this is in your Utilities Folder in your Application folder) and click on the icon of your hard disk (not the one with all the numbers).
In First Aid, click on Repair Permissions.
This only takes a minute or two.

If you were having any serious problems with your Mac you might as well complete the exercise by repairing your hard disk as well. You cannot do this from the same start-up disk. Reboot from your install disk (holding down the C key). Once it opens, select your language, and then go to Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. Select your hard disk as before and click Repair.
Once that is complete reboot again from your usual start-up disk.

New MB-Pro...stupidly slow download speed via wifi

Hello all
Finally bit the bullet and bought myself a Macbook Pro brand new from Apple to go with all the other Apple gadgetry which I have accumulated.
I've had it for 1 day and am stumped already!
My old lappy (PC) download speed via wifi was bloody quick and downloads took no time at all. I connected my new macbook to my existing wifi network no problems, good strong signal....and that's where the issues started.
I conducted a software update and found that I needed a newer version of itunes....136mb (approx), there was me thinking this should be no prob for a brand new machine....clicked install....9 hours estimated time....then rising to 13hours!! Needless to say I couldn't believe it and cancelled it after 45 minutes of little to non existent progress.
All my other devices using wifi, iphones, pad and old PC still download super quick via wifi so I know that it's no issue with my network. I've connected my device to my router using ethernet and it's working equally as fast as wifi with my other devices.
Any suggestions would be grately appreciated before I pull my hair out.
Cheers

Exceptionally slow download speeds, no answers from company

We upgraded to 75/75 last week. After installing the new router, my husband, who is a network engineer working from home noticed that the download speeds were exceptionally slow, averaging about 1.5 Mbps. Upload speeds were fine. We called customer service last Saturday and were told it was an outage that would be fixed "soon". That was six days ago. Still no fix. He can't work here because the speeds are too slow. While all the customer service reps have been very nice, no one can get us an answer about when, if ever, it will be fixed. Considering calling Comcast. Thoughts? Anyone else having the same issues?

There were some service issues in the northeast today but they were resolved around noonish. Are you still having the problem? This may all be very basic, especially to your network engineer husband, but.... If you're still having the problem, are you getting the slow download speeds via wifi or with a hardwired (Ethernet) connection to your router? What results do you get using the Verizon speedtest: http://my.verizon.com/services/speedtest/ And what results at www.speedtest.net? That additional info may help a fellow user here on the forum suggest where the problem lies and what you might do about it.

Very Slow Download Speed

Hi,
I am experiencing very slow downloading speeds, when I am just normally downloading something in Safari, or downloading a torrent with upto 100 seeders.
The maximum download speed I have seen on my computer is 80kb/s, which is painfully slow for downloading the Adobe trials, when they reach about 1gb.
I have a router, connected to 2 computers, and speedtest.net has told me that my download speed is 1mb/s.
It seems like download speeds are being restricted to 80kb/s, so is there any way to 'unlock' full potential downloading speeds?
Any help much appreciated!
-Ollie

I think you're making the same mistake a lot of people make.
The maximum download speed I have seen on my computer is 80kb/s
Safari reports downloads in kiloBYTES per second, not kilobits, so that 80KB/s translates to about 640 kilobits per second.
downloading the Adobe trials, when they reach about 1gb
Really? 1 gigabit per second? I assume that's a typo.
speedtest.net has told me that my download speed is 1mb/s
therefore your downloads are progressing at about 64% of maximum. That sounds about right - you won't get maximum throughput for every download - it will vary based on server location, network load and more.

Very slow download speeds with ATT U-Verse

Hello,
Experiencing very slow download speeds with Macbook Pro 2011, on Lion, and ATT UVerse Max, which should allow for an avg. 11-12 MBPS speed. Instead, I get a fluctuating 60-370 kbps speed. I am not experiencing this problem on my Windows machines (Laptop running Windows 7 and Desktop on XP), it is only affecting the Macbook pro. I wonder if this issue is a known problem with ATT U-Verse and Macs, I spent hours yesterday with their support online and they couldn't help me, stating that from their side all settings were OK; the first representative from ATT re-booted the router remotely and that seemed to work for about 10 minutes, and then it went back to a crawling speed...
Any suggestions welcome!
Thanks

Do you have QOS enabled in your router? Did you try plugging the win7 laptop directly and check the speed?

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.

E1200 router: very slow download speeds, ok uploady got

I recently set up a new E1200 router to replace my old one. We are having problems with very slow download speeds (often <0.10 Mbps) even while the upload speeds are OK (8-10 Mbps). Our previous download speed over wifi was 10-15 Mbps.
When I first set it up, the download speed was very poor on the initial computer. After fooling around, it was fine. I don't know what I did that made it speed up. However, my wife's computer has had very poor download speeds. After rebooting my computer, the download speed has also dropped bak to <0.10. I was able to stream Hulu on my Wii just fine an hour ago.
What could the problem be?

So we could have this isolated, check how much speed you’re getting straight to the modem so we’ll have some point of comparison that from your internet provider. If through the router, you have struggles with not getting an acceptable value for download speed especially if it only happens with the wireless connection, you can try these: change the wireless channel and the wireless security on the router. If on the router, you have the channel set to auto by default change it to (3,6,9,11), just have to play around with it. Moreover, for the wireless security, select WPA2 Personal. If that doesn’t make any difference, update the firmware of the router, reset and have it reconfigured.

Very slow download speed though modem line rate no...

Hi
I recently noticed (today, 31st December) that our download speed had dropped very low, to approx 0.5Mbps. The upload speed is normal, approx 1Mbps. The modem line rate is however normal (8Mbps dowm, 1Mbps up). I have checked the download speed using http://speedtest.btwholesale.com/. I am at postcode SK237FN and have had consistently reliable download speeds for several years, 5-7Mbps.
Please help!
I already tried rebooting my router but this has not improved matters.
Thanks...

Very slow download speed on ipad 2

Okay folks I need your help. I have just installed an Airport Extreme (newest model) wirless router and a new Motorola Sufboard modem and my interenet download speed is pretty good on the pc (23-25 Mbps). However, when I run the speed test on my ipad 2 it is pathetic (.14 - .18 Mbps). My iphone 4 is getting about the same download speed as well. I have reset all devices, tried forgetting the network and then signing on again, but nothing helps. What could be causing the slow download speed on the Apple products?

Okay I got it. I went into the Airport Utility and changed the channel selection from automatic to manual and then I changed the channel to something different. There are a lot of house in my neigborhood and I guess the default channel 6 was just way over crowded. Just did another test on my iphone4 and got a download speed of 18.33 Mbps. The ipad2 yielded a new speed of 24.24 Mbps. Much better now. Thanks!

How many thousands of Apple TV users have to scream their complaints before Apple will respond to the fury over the impossibly slow download speeds of movies bought through iTunes??????

How many thousands of Apple TV users have to scream their complaints before Apple will respond to the fury over the impossibly slow download speeds of movies bought through iTunes?

As jules says, your rate (currently at least) may be slow.
If it used to be good I wonder is your ISP is slowing ('throttling') your speed after you've used so many GB of a quota each day or month - check what they think you should be getting as a download speed.
While Apple's servers do occasionally play up, it's generally the ISP being slow not Apple.
If you're using Google's DNS servers that has caused issues for some.
Recommended speeds for near instant playback:
SD         2.5Mbps
720p      6 Mbps
1080p    8 Mbps
Is your speed test from somewhere like speedtest.net?
It might be helpful to post Mbps to ensure we/you are not confusing speeds by using different units to those measured.

HT5731 I forgot about slow download speed's negative effects... hence (I think) the videos I downloaded stop in the middle. I have a better download speed if I connect directly to LAN. Is there anyway for me to fix the videos previously purchased?

I forgot about slow download speed's negative effects... hence (I think) the videos I downloaded stop in the middle. I can get a better download speed if I connect directly to LAN. Is there anyway for me to fix the videos previously purchased or re download them without having to re purchase them? I'm attempting to play the video's directly from iTune "purchased" folder on my Win7 Home Premium PC.

Never mind.. I found instructions on how to re download purchased items. I only need help downloading 2 more items. I love the attention I've recieeved (I guess silly questions go unoticed... sigh)

WAP321 slow download speeds

Hi!
I have a WAP321 access point in a home environment, powered by PoE, and sharing two VLANs with VAPs, one home network, and one guest network.
The problem I have is that my download speeds are very slow, while my upload speeds are fine. I usually get around 20-40 Mbps down (access point to device), and 60-70 Mbps up (device to access point). This is tested both with speedtest (I have 100/100 fiber) and iperf on the local network.
I am happy with the upload speeds, and would like to have similar download speeds.
The only thing I can think of that would have this effect is QoS, but I can't find a way to turn QoS off completely. I don't really need QoS at this point. I have these QoS settings right now:
I need to use mixed n/g mode for compatibility, but I have tried 5 GHz and there was no difference. I have also tried different channels but found that channel 6 that I was already using was the best. I have also tried to use 100% transmit power with no difference. 20/40MHz was slower than 20 MHz.
My diagnostics file is attached. Any help would be appreciated.
/Erik

Erik,
Try testing another device does it behave the same way ?

Exceedingly slow download speeds on brand new mbp os lion

Hi,
There seems to be a lot of posted issues with slow download speeds on the MBP. I purchased mine 2 weeks ago (Oct 2011), a 13" core i7. My download speeds are a tiny fraction of what I get with a 10 year old Dell. Reading the posts on this issue, they all seem to be going in circles. I am technically very savvy although new to apple. I did at one point get an acceptable increase in download speeds after manually entering the gateway, subnet and DNS. However two days later download speeds have reduced from 17.8 MB/s to 37kb/s. The right now the Dell is screaming a 702MB download. The MBP slug is telling me it will take 5 hours.
Has anyone ever resolved his issue?

So as mentioned above I tried connecting to the router using a wire instead of wireless..
many sites work fine....but some do not
Example
works fine
Apple.com
gmail.com
does not work fine...the page does not load up and gets stuck in the very beginning....
www.CNN.com
http://www.sportsauthority.com/home/index.jsp
sportauthority has flash embedded on that page....CNN, I do not know...
could it have anything to do with Flash ?
Regards,

Slow download speed on my macbook pro compared to windows.

Hello,
When i use my macbook pro to download a file i hit very slow download speeds (50 kb/s tops), compared to fast download speeds in vista using boot camp (300 kb/s tops) and the same when i use my brothers PC.
Anyone know how i can fix this or why it might be happening?
thanks

Common strategies:
* Use ethernet instead of wireless.
* Get a better/upgraded ISP.
* Get a better/upgraded router.
* Get a newer mac.

Sigh slow download speeds iPad

Is anyone having problems with slower download speeds on iPads and if so any suggestions to fix? Also some videos on my laptop, ex: like twitter mobile uploads I'm trying to view, are slow. Come to think of it, some youtube things slow to download on laptop, too, so not the sites' faults.. Is it Verizon's? Why is the download speed erratic to non-exisitent on certain videos with Fios?

The first thing that needs to be checked first is the FiOS connection. Go to http://measurementlab.net/measurement-lab-tools#tool1 and perform a speed test using a computer connected via Ethernet and see if the results match what you should be getting on your connection. Additionally on the iPad, visit testmy.net and perform their download speed test. If you have any additional PCs in the home that can use Wireless, perform a speed test over Wireless using the Measurement Lab address.
