Whether you own the Xbox Series X or Series S, accessing the best games is simpler than ever through Game Pass and digital downloads. However, a common hurdle is the large size of these games, causing long wait times during installation. If you’re eager to dive into your next gaming adventure, follow these tips to minimize your download times.
Prioritize Your Download
While your game is downloading, you may be tempted to play other multiplayer games or stream your favorite shows. However, this will slow down the download process. To maximize your download speed, refrain from using your console for other tasks and close any applications running in the background.
Additionally, try to download one game at a time. The more processes your console has to handle simultaneously, the longer each one takes.
Enhance Your Connection
While you can’t control the internet speeds in your area, there are several steps you can take to ensure you’re utilizing your connection efficiently. During downloads, disconnect other devices on your network, such as smartphones and laptops. The fewer devices connected, the faster your console can download.
Using a wired Ethernet connection instead of Wi-Fi can greatly improve download speeds, though that might not always be feasible. If possible, place your console closer to your router to reduce any signal loss.
If you still experience slow downloads, consider rebooting your router to resolve any potential issues. If problems persist, it may be time to reach out to your ISP for assistance.
