The issue is (again), that Chrome artificially caps your inet speed.

This only works to throttle an already uncapped browser speed, NOT speed it up! If you switch to the default profile settings, the download speeds will go back to normal, and you won’t be able to do anything until the process is done.

Switch between the profiles you’ve created to make sure that the download speed is always where you want it. If you have already created two or more download profiles, don’t go back to the default Chrome profile settings. If you started the download already, you won’t be able to change the download profile. If you do it in the middle of the process, Chrome will revert to its original settings.Īlso, you need to activate the custom download profile before you start a download. Remember to wait for the download to complete before exiting the DevTools pane. Each tab is isolated, which means that you will have to set every tab’s download speed manually before you start your downloads. The download limit won’t be transferred to the other tabs you have opened. What this means is that the download profile you’ve selected works only on the tab it’s used for. You can return to the DevTools tab at any time to create new profiles or edit the existing ones. That’s all you need to do to limit the download speed on Chrome.

The method we will describe doesn’t require you to install or download any extra programs. they are on a 14mb fiber connection in an office.Google Chrome comes with all of the features you need to limit the download speed on your device. I think that safely eliminates my ISP, they use someone else entirely. and if I'm sharing a file with someone and they also get those horrible speeds.

#Google download speed full#
that's dreadfully slow, but about the same speed I get with a browser on upload.Īgain - if I upload / download anywhere else I get my full speeds. I used to get my full upload capacity which isn't super at 2mb, but now I get 260kb/s most of the time. I use MaxSyncUp which used to be fast for backups. Interesting thing though, there's a linux based "gdrive" project that lets me link to my google drive account and using that to upload/download is MUCH faster than using the web based upload/download. It sucks because I've upgraded to two terabytes and have used it to backup critical files. This is regular now, it wasn't this bad before. I decided to go around it and just upload to a web hosting account I had, it uploaded in 20 minutes and he downloaded it in 10 I was trying to upload and share a large file with a co-worker and it took nearly two hours, then when they were downloading on their 14mb connection it was going to take 4 hours. a small fraction of what I get if I upload/download through ftp elsewhere. I download/upload via the browser and the speeds are terrible.
