Hello,
It seems our download speeds are getting throttled to 1MB/s. Is there any way to increase this? We have a symmetrical 1G connection and have tried downloading from different devices and networks and seem to still get capped at 1MB/s.
Question
Slow Download Speeds
Hi there,
Welcome to the Box Community!
If you are encountering problems downloading files from your Box account, we recommend you try
- Updating your browser to the latest version
- Clearing your browser's cache
- Using Box with an alternate browser, computer or network
- Temporarily disabling any internet security/firewall programs to test whether they conflict with Box (note: you may need clearance/assistance from your organization’s IT department/helpdesk to do this)
- Disabling any plugins on your browser

Hi Aira,
Thank you for your reply!
We've tried the above and are still only getting 1MB/s on downloads. Is there anything else that can be done?
Kind Regards,
Van
This is definitely a box.com issue. The download speeds are horrendous across browsers and devices. I have symmetrical 10G and the uploads are fast but takes me 5 minutes to download a 1GB file.
box its amazing you checked this ANSWERED. box at most uses 1% of my internet speed. dropbox and google drive don't have these problems.
