Why Internet Slow




Why Internet Connection so slow?

High speed Internet connections run at a much faster rate than any dial-up connection.  However, if you are looking for a specific connection rate, be cautious. High Speed Internet connections that are advertised are often much slower in reality.  The advertised speeds are often the maximum potential that a particular connection can reach, not what the connection speed will be on a daily basis. So Why it's happen?. Let find out what is the reason!


 

Reasons Why High Speed Internet Connection Can Be Slowed Down:

  • DSL speeds are affected by the network’s location.  The further from the central office of the telephone company you are, the slower your high speed Internet connection will be.  
  • Some modems, particularly inexpensive models and internal modems, can only handle certain speeds of data transfer, limiting the speed of the Internet connection, regardless of the speed your high speed service can provide. 
  • Cable Internet services share bandwidth with satellite Internet access.  If there are many subscribers using that same bandwidth, it can slow down the connection. 
  • Some older homes that use outdated telephone wires may be the cause of a slow Internet connection, as they can sometimes be limited to a 33.6 Kbps speed. 
  • If a Web site has particularly high traffic at the time you are trying to access it, your slow connection speed could be the fault of the Web site.  If too many people are trying to access the same site at the same time, it could cause congestion and slow down the entire site.  
  • Downloading with a bitTorrent client makes your internet because most downloads expend a lot of bandwith.
  • The BitTorrent protocol relies mostly on users uploading their data. Most internet service providers don't allow their customers much bandwith to upload data.
  • If you're download a certain file at 8 megabits per second, and your maximum is 16mbps, you are allowed to use 8 megabits more per second. If you use any more, your provider will force your account not to allow any more downloads
