How to increase Xbox Series S download speed?
Try changing your DNS settings to something faster like Google's DNS (8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4) or Cloudflare's DNS (1.1.1.1). This can sometimes speed up your connection.

Make sure your Xbox Series S is using a wired Ethernet connection instead of Wi-Fi. Wired connections are usually more stable and faster.
Turn off any other devices or applications that might be using your internet connection while downloading. More bandwidth for your Xbox means faster downloads!
Check your console settings. Go to 'Settings' -> 'Network' -> 'Advanced settings' -> 'Alternate MAC address' and clear any existing MAC address. Restart your Xbox afterward.
In my experience, pausing and then resuming the download can sometimes kick it into a higher speed. Not always, but worth a shot!
