xbox Tremendous Download Speed
Use Orbit Downloader instead of Free Download Manager
Hello all,
Everyone is probably aware of Jambo87's Tutorial on how to improve speed if you're an American bandwidth user. For the people who have already read his tutorial and still cannot get MAJOR improvement in download speed READ ON:
I have recently became a Premium user on this website and now am unlocking the full capabilities of downloading (FINALLY!). I couldn't get Free Download Manager to work properly integrated with FireFox according to Jambo87's tutorial. So I stumbled upon a forum on the dcisozone side and seen somebody post Orbit Downloader and I was curious to see what it was about. After downloading and installing it...I never looked back to Free Download Manager. I now get up to 1MBPS and sometimes more on rare occassions when downloading. I downloaded a 1GB Xbox Iso in under a half an hour if you need to picture how fast I'm talking about. So google Orbit Downloader and if you have FireFox it will not work(unless I am doing something wrong) as I've already tried this myself. It should automatically integrate with Internet Explorer(Get the latest Internet Explorer for even better speed). After it does, you really don't have to mess with the configuration of Orbit Downloader as everything is already checked. If not then make sure the following are checked for maximum performance:
Go to Preferences>
Under Download/Connection:
- Connection to the original URL- Make sure it is 10
- Max connections per job - Make sure it is 60
Under Limits Check the following:
- No speed limit
Under Accelerate Check the following:
- Enable Orbitnet to accelerate download speed
- Use mirror connections to accelerate download speed
- Use peer connections to accelerate download speed
- Try to download from P2P and mirror resources when the target URL does not exist
After these simple steps you are GOLDEN! Happy Downloading to everybody and please feel free to comment =)
