# What determines the download speed?

Several factors affect the speed of a download:

  1. Sources: Download speed primarily depends on the source. If the source's servers are under heavy load or have limited bandwidth, it can slow down your download speed. You can try different sources and choose the one with the best service quality.

  2. Your bandwidth: Your internet connection's bandwidth directly impacts download speed. Higher bandwidth typically means faster downloads.

  3. Number of download threads: The number of simultaneous threads can affect speed. More threads can increase speed up to a limit, based on your internet connection and the server's capabilities.

  4. Connection quality: The link quality between your network and the source's server can influence speed. Using an appropriate VPN can sometimes improve the connection quality.
