Wanna get your games quicker on Steam? Make sure you're connected to the internet via an Ethernet cable rather than WiFi for a more stable and faster connection. Also, you can try changing your Steam download region to one that's less busy. You'll find this setting in the Steam client under 'Settings' > 'Downloads'. Lastly, avoid downloading during peak hours when everyone else is hogging the bandwidth.

Just pause and resume the download. Sometimes it feels like it kick-starts Steam into downloading faster. Might just be superstition, but hey, if it works, it works!

Honestly, just upgrade your internet package. All these tweaks might help a bit, but nothing beats raw speed from a better internet service.

In my experience, clearing the download cache in Steam's settings sometimes speeds things up. It's like giving Steam a fresh start.

Don't bother with tweaks; none of them make a significant difference.
