I prefer to load the previous session but you can speed things up considerably if you select "begin fresh with start page" or "open a specific page or set of pages". On Startup - Depends on your preferences.You can add exceptions for sites that you want to support. Block ads - Enable if you don't use a dedicated extension to block ads.Note that you may want to leave some settings turned on or off depending on your use of certain features. Never your disk drive.Load opera://settings/ in the browser's address bar to get started. It is a good idea to start at the top and go all the way down to the bottom of the page.Ĭheck out the following suggestions. Laptop(older with 802.11g) -> WiFi to router = 54Mb/sĪlmost always, your bottleneck will be because of one or more of these 3 things: WiFi, ISP connection, or a slow server/ISP on the other end. Here is another with an older laptop with a WiFi bottleneck: Download a file from Google Drive = 2.5 Mb/sĪs you can see, the bottle neck there is your ISP connection. Laptop(newer with 802.11c) connected via WiFi to a router. Take this scenario below, which would be an average user setup: Note: there are some fiber ISPs now offering Gigabit connections, but those are extremely pricey and usually used by very bandwidth needy businesses.
Meaning the fastest your download speed ever will be, in perfect circumstances, is 10MB/s (Megabytes). On the higher end of ISP packages, you can get 100Mb/s. The network will always be the bottleneck. There are 4^2 possible bottlenecks when downloading a file(s) from a server across the internet.Ģ) Physical Ethernet cable or WiFi connection to the routerĪnd then the same in reverse on the server side.Īs some comments have mentioned, it does not matter if you have a HDD connected via IDE at speeds of 5 MB/s, or a SSD that could write at crazy speeds of 10GB/s. When speaking in terms of a download speed, changing your disk drive will never have an effect on that. I was not really pleased by either answer here, so here we are. This mean your drive is about 600x faster than your network - the bottleneck argument is a moot point. Your internet, unless you live anywhere in Korea or lucky enough to live where there is Google or Comcast Fibre, it's probably around 100Mb/sec. If you didn't address any/all of these points, your download speed would have no change whatsoever.Īs for the bottlenecks addressed in the other answers, let me assure you that the data transfer rate of a SATA III interface is 6Gb/sec while your NIC (network interface card) at most will be 1Gb/sec.
