Make sure you are on 5ghz WiFi or better. Go to Settings, Downloads then TOGGLE OFF Throttle Downloads while streaming. Last Restart your device and see if it helps.

I have been telling people about this for months... my download speed is 300mb so i set my limit to and it matches my internet connection.

Dang it actually worked my download went from 50mbs to 75mbs. Not a big jump but it’s something

Go to desktop mode and install games for a bit then come back, another method is getting decky loader > powertools and setting cpu and everything at max frequency on console mode, this will also improve download speeds.

Change the download region also worked for me

I thought not having a download limit helps it go faster than putting a limit on it? Can you clarify please? My download speed is 800mbs but steam deck is only downloading at 6mbs which is very slow compared to my internet speeds. I don’t know what to do 🥲

[KharreFade]

After watching 30 videos. This definitely the real deal 💯 mine went up to 120mb for a minute 😂 but it works fashure
