So I wanted to download something with my browser (40 GB file) and the average download speed was about 1.2 MB per second on the other hand when I was downloading something else on Torrent,it was downloading with an average of 10 MB per second,same with Steam.Now I tried to change my browser from Chrome to Mozilla and then to Opera etc,and I had the same results.

How can I possibly make my browser download speed faster.
 
Solution
Webpages run off HTTP, so do the downloads on those webpages. HTTP downloads are extremely slow and tedious, hence your problem.

Programs like Steam download directly from a server, which is faster.

You can't fix slow HTTP downloads, you just have to deal with it sadly.

Hope this helped!
