As long as you don’t stray too far, you may find that an alternative location is used less (offering more bandwidth for you to use). You should try to choose the closest server to your location, but if this is still slower than you’d like, experiment a little.

By changing the download region to servers closer to you, it should help to increase your overall Steam download speeds. If this setting is set too far from your current location, your download speeds might be slower than you’d expect. Set your nearest Download region in the drop-down menu.
