Complaining about download speed at 49K? Good grief, are you on a “soup cans with strings” connection?

Go to WiFi hotspot (McDonalds, Paneara, etc) for a more normal and faster speed.

IT's A DESKTOP!!!! Dial Up is all that is available where I live. Believe me if high speed were here I'd use it and Dial up worked well on XP.

Even if I had HughestNet the W 8 "CLOUD" and chit Chat programs with MS Corp partners built into W-8 would take a good chunk of the allowed bandwidth. Many persons do not have access to high speed. MS ignores that to make this stinking WINDOWS 8 X-BOX Cross Bread Abomination.

I do have a laptop unfortunately with now unsupported XP I used when I needed to go somewhere for high speed WIFI.
