29mbps sounds about right for fibre optic broadband, while 5 is more like the speed you'd tend to get with normal broadband.if most of the tests are giving you scores on the lower end, I'd hazard a guess that your ISP may be throttling your download speed. Now, your download speed tests are giving results with a huge range. 5mbps would give something closer to a download speed of 600-650KB/s) As others have said, your download speed of 5 megabits per second roughly reflects the 900 kilobytes per second download speed you're getting (it's even a bit on the quick side. Upload Speed 0.80 - 3.20 mbps (Same as above)First things first, try to avoid getting bits and bytes mixed up.

I'm getting sick tired of how all my buds here in Malmö who got the same internet provider keep getting download speeds of 3 mbps on steam but I only get 900 kbps, they have some cheap computers that cant even do squat. I've tried different servers on steam, yet no change.

No programs running in the background, only steam. No viruses, no bad PC, PC is brand new, got it 1 month ago, built it and all pieces togheter costed around 3.5k dollars I'll note down some facts that will be good for you (the reader/helper) to know before you suggest anything.

I don't really know what to do to speed up my download speed. Upload Speed 0.80 - 3.20 mbps (Same as above) I went to several internet speed test sites and the most common result I got among all of the tests wereĭownload Speed 5 - 29 mbps (To servers from Europe to US and Asia)
