First of all, your location is the problem... You can't do anything about it. You need a better internet provider.But if you want to boost your internet connection a little bit you need to ''Port Forward'' some apps from your computer directly at the port you wish. This will boost it up JUST A LITTLE BIT.
Elaboration:
Your computer sends data to every page and when those data are sent, data from the page come back in order to display the page. Now those data begin to search for an open port in your computer to come it. and they start from port 99.999. They check EVERY single port EVERY time until they reach(for example) port 2033 which is open and allows the data to come in. Now with port forwarding you tell your router to send the data from specific programs(in this case firefox or chrome) DIRECTLY to one single port. So now, insted of searching every single port to find an open one, data from FIREFOX OR CHROME ONLY come directly to port 2033. Without searching. This will boost things up a little bit. But watch out not to assign a closed port because once the data see that the port is closed, they wont start searching.
