Firefox is configured by absence for dial-up speeds. If you accept top acceleration internet admission such as DSL or cable, you can change a few settings in Firefox and access your download speeds. If you change the amount of access that Firefox uses to download, you will see a affecting increas in your bandwidth. The beyond the book you are downloading, the greater the acceleration will be, because added access can be fabricated to the server.

Method 1:

1. Change Firefox connection setting by typing “about:config” in the address bar of Firefox.

2. In the “Filter:” bar, type “persistent”

3. You should now see two preference names with their values:

network.http.max-persistent-connections-per-proxy user set interger 4
network.http.max-persistent-connections-per-server user set interger 2

4. Double click on each of the preference names. A window will pop-up allowing you to change the values for each. If you have cable or DSL use a number between 20 and 30!. Click OK.

Note: I use 26 for proxy and 26 for server

5.Restart Firefox and you will be able to download more files simultaneously and each file a lot faster.

Method 2:
Just install firefox extension, DownThem All and restart your firefox
