You can try below tips when you have faster internet connection and still facing slow speed while surfing: -
1. Flush Your DNS Server Cache: -
When you use the Web it sends information to the DNS server of your internet service provider. DNS server manages a massive database that maps domain names
to IP addresses. Most operating systems and DNS clients will
automatically cache IP Addresses and other DNSresults, this is done in
order to speed up subsequent requests to the same hostname. Sometimes
bad results will be cached which slower down your internet speed and
therefore need to be cleared from the cache in order for you to
communicate with the host correctly.
Flushing the DNS on Windows is an easy process,
Open the command prompt (Start –> Run –> tyep CMD –> Press Enter) and type the following command and hit enter: -
ipconfig /flushdns
You will get below message.
Windows IP Configuration
Successfully flushed the DNS Resolver Cache.
If you are running Mac OS X Leopard, you need to do the following.

dscacheutil -flushcache
If you are running Mac OS X 10.5.1 or below, you need to run following command in command terminal.
lookupd -flushcache
Linux Flush DNS

2. Delete the Temporary Internet Files and Cookies: -
If you haven’t cleared the temporary internet files and delete the cookies than also you face slow internet speed. You should delete cookies, delete temporary internet files and delete browser history at least once every month. By deleting these files you will help speed up internet and keep up your PC healthy.
3. Close unnecessary open pages: -
Too
many pages open at the same time will definitely slow down the speed of
the internet. Having many pages that open means spending more energy to
read what’s in the windows browser. The second aspect is that many web
pages using dynamic refresh function. So even if your browser window (or
tab) only one you can see, he can actually take bandwidth. The amount
of memory, both RAM and video memory is also related to the amount of
memory Windows will be spent by an open application
4. Use updated browser always: -
Using an older browser may also create slow Internet connection speed sometime. There are many websites that do not open just due to enhanced features and changes of new
technology. For an instances people using Internet explorer 6 may
experience not opening issue of many new websites or if opens it is very
slow. Old browsers take also greater time to synchronize with new
enhanced features and takes huge amount of memory and CPU usage.
Sometime due to this one may experience entire Slow PC issue. So try updating your browser and keep it updated always.
5. Use OpenDns to Enhance Internet Speed: -
OpenDns acts as an alternative to your default DNS server or your internet service
provider. If the DNS server of your ISP is slow, the time it takes to
resolve the web address adds up to the overall loading time of the
website and slow down the web surfing.
To change from DNS server of your ISP to OpenDNS, simply add the following server addresses to your LAN and Internet connection.
Go to Network Connections > Right Click on Local Area Connection > Properties > Select Internet Protocol (TCI/IP) > Properties. A new window will open now select radio button of Use the following DNS server addresses and write down below IP in that boxes.3
Preferred DNS Server 208.67.222.222 and Alternate DNS Server 208.67.220.220
