How to Make an Xbox 360 Browser Run Faster

The XBox 360 does not have an Internet browser that allows you to peruse websites. However, the Xbox 360 offers features such as Netflix, Hulu and Xbox Live that require the Internet to use. From time to time these services may lag if you do not prepare properly to use the Xbox's Internet. With a few changes your Xbox Internet will improve, allow you to use these services more quickly.

Instructions

- 1
  Stop any downloads occurring in the background of your Xbox. For example, stop any demo or add-on downloads while playing games or watching streaming television. Running a download will slow down the Xbox 360 browser.
- 2
  Hard-wire your Xbox to your router instead of using wireless Internet. This will prevent any interference with other electronics. It will also prevent the router from kicking the Xbox off the Internet if the router stops working.
- 3
  Run only one device on your wireless Internet at a time. This means if you are playing Xbox with a wireless router, do not run your computer or laptop at the same time. The less bandwidth other devices are using, the more bandwidth is available for your Xbox 360.
