Frequently asked questions
- Why is my download slower than my plan?
- Advertised speeds are in megabits, files are in megabytes — divide by eight. Protocol overhead, server limits and Wi-Fi losses typically leave 80–90% of the rated speed.
- Does a faster SSD speed up downloads?
- Only at the very top end. Above roughly 1 Gbps the disk write and the store's decompression step can become the limit rather than the network.
