whenever i try to download something from firefox the speed is always around 50kb/s which is very slow considering my connection is 50mbps and when i download from game platforms or elsewhere the speeds are at least 4mb/s. I have seen people say that it may be due to site slow uploading servers but this can not happen to all cites.

Go to the Mozilla Add-ons Web Page {web Link} (There’s a lot of good stuff here) and search for a download manager.

Already tried for download managers but still

This download manager works separately from the browser. The browser tells it what to download, and off it goes.
