| Roblox eats up ALL my internet.. When games load.. my internet is basically dead. Torrent, youtube and stuffs slow up my internet too.. but not that much.. like Roblox does. They really should fix this problem somehow. |

Not our problem. You should get a new laptop/computer. |

Eh. I half-heartedly agree with Owlz.
I'd like it if ROBLOX didn't chew up my internet either.

ROBLOX cannot do much about this, unless you choose to edit the graphic qualities on your own ROBLOX browser.
Firstly, before coming here, you should go to Technical Issues and see if there is any solution there. Allow some time for this, as Technical Issues is usually inactive.
If nobody says anything there, tough. We can't help you, it's not ROBLOX that's controlling this (well, it is, because they're making the lag, so really the only way to stop the lag is to shutdown ROBLOX, but we're not gonna go that far, are we?). All your problems could be solved with a new computer. It solved my problems. |

| There are a lot of games with better physics, graphics and everything than roblox.. they don't eat my internet like this tho... <_< They fix this.. but why would they do it? They won't get profit from it. |

the internet is probably because: 1. you have a low speed internet connection from the first place, 2. your computer has most of its RAM used up. 3. you have your roblox quality set as a very good graphic. 4. your computer is just running way to many things at once.
so look at these and check every one of them, it will help.
( i know desktops/ any kind of computer inside and out by heart. ) |

no not really.
2004 computers a good but if you have the current ones then you can do much much more. but that doesn't matter right? what matters is that if the computer is working and able to do things.
now if you have way to much RAM taking up then look over the things you dont need and delete them, shut down and turn it on again and then try playing. |

Idon't really see a point in posting a thread like this. Roblox doesn't want their site to destory your internet speed and know this happens with most people but not much can be done. All i can surgest is to buy a better router/internet connection. Delete most things on the computer you don't use or never plan to use. Move to a different room, nearer to the router. Press shift f10 to lower the graphics.
Try to upgrade your grahpics card (I beleive most do this for free,as i did with Nvidia, however most things won't be free to make sure to look closely) Once thats done it'll make a progam/Ui to actually lower the grahpics that anything on the computer will display. Now i did have such a problem like this and i felt that actually upgrading the card then lowering the grahpics of all things actually helped fix it,though your solution may be different. |

That is a good idea. |

"Delete most things on the computer you don't use or never plan to use." That won't do anything. Deleting things from an HDD doesn't help, and I don't imagine it would do anything to a SSD either. |

Yeah, the only real thing you can do is change internet provider. Changing graphics settings most likely won't help as any graphics are client side, and are therefore unrelated to the internet. |

5 bucks says he's using Internet Explorer T-T
If you are, you should try Google Chrome, it's much faster. |

@freeze *Firefox
Your browser most likely won't affect this. You're running it in a separate program. |

here are the speeds of the browsers.
Firefox: ok speed but still a bit slow and cannot take more then 2 pages open.
explorer: sence its really old and not new its a very slow speed although if you take off some of the apps on the bar line on top it may get faster.
google chrome: it is the new browser, and its updated and all with everything. it has a great connection with the internet.
Rockmelt: some of you may have herd of it but it is new, it has a great connection with the internet and it is updated to date. and a great tool to use for games like roblox. ( in fact i am using it right now )
there are more but i just felt like putting these but if you want me to tell you more i can. |

It's like the first browser ever made. They have experience. They won't add stuff that might lag the browser.
Plus it doesn't have anything to do with your ROBLOX speed. |

well actually it kind of does.
See the apps on the bar use internet to power them, and so the internet is giving them some and the roblox some so if you take them away then it will be a bit faster. so their. i have tried it my self. |

@oma, Only certain apps, and such a small amount it really doesn't affect much. Browser really doesn't affect ROBLOX.
On another note, Firefox can EASILY handle more than two tabs. I usually run about five or six at once. You need an upgrade for your PC if it can't.
@Ketl No, IE is a pile of slow motion poo. |
