How to Uncap Steam Download Speed
Honestly, just make sure you're not capping your speed in Steam settings. If your download still acts like it's stuck in 1999, might be time to give your ISP a call.

I've been downloading games off Steam for ages, and the best trick is to change your download region. I switched mine to a server with fewer people hammering it during peak times, and boom, speed went up. Also, don't game or stream stuff while downloading. Your bandwidth isn't unlimited!
Easy peasy! Pop open Steam, head to Settings -> Downloads, and there you'll see a dropdown for Download Restrictions. Make sure there's no limit set. If your internet still feels like a sloth, check your ISP speeds or try changing the download region in the same menu to one closer to you. Steam might be taking the scenic route with your data!
Uncap your Steam download speed? Why bother? Just start your download and go do something useful. It'll be done when it's done.
