I have a fast internet connection, but Second Life seems to download items slowly

[Lexie Linden]

How can I make things faster?

Go to Edit > Preferences > Network and move the Maximum Bandwidth slider further to the right. The number is measured in kilobits per  second; if you aren't sure what this means, you should check with your  Internet Service Provider for more details.

On a great connection, you can set it to 1000 and if your packet loss bar doesn't go red constantly, it should be OK.
