Windows 10 uses a certain amount of your bandwidth to download updates for the Windows OS and apps. If it uses too much bandwidth, you can add a limit. Some apps use your Internet connection to download, upload, and sync files. You can find these data-hogging apps in a menu on your Windows 10 PC. If your current connection has this feature enabled, you should disable it to get faster upload and download speeds.
Many apps running in the background use your Internet connection. As a result, you get slower download and upload speeds. You can disable the background apps option on your PC. I'd still use cFosSpeed for best throughput at all times, but even that is unnecessary most of the time.

Understanding the user's perception of "fast" When thinking about speed of internet connections, remember that speed latency and bandwidth breadth of the pipe are two different things completely.
You should consider both in building webpages, including browser render times. For limited tests the.
