Probably not. The internet is not connected to your files, so deleting them wouldn't be helpful.

However, some tips to help with your connection problems...

1. Switch companies. I use XFINITY home for my phones, internet, and TV.

2. Clear your browser history. It will help by deleting all the info it stored in you History section. The speed may be faster now.

3. If you use a laptop, either buy a new modem , or reset it. This helps alot when I have connection problems, too.

4.A new browser. I used to use IE9, but it was slow so I switched to Google Chrome. I believe it works on all platforms, like Mac or Linux as well.



Hope these tips helped!

If u want to increase the internet speed u have to call the service provider of that modem so u can change your internet plan of more MBPS...mine is 2 MBPS speed.

It might improve machine performance if your drive is showing red in Computer as it would release more room for system temporary storage. But you would need to remove masses of files to make significant difference. and be careful you do not remove ANY file unless you know exactly what they do, and that you and the system do not need them.

no it must be your provider or your browser,try optimizing your computer to delete junk files in your browser if it doesn't work try updating or downloading a new browser. Remember Playing too much game and visiting too much sites will slow down your internet and computer try avoiding those things.

No it won't. Your internet speed is based on your provider and your modem. Not the space on your computer.
