This will sound silly, but one way to get it to download 'faster' is to just have it sit idle in XMB. The more things you do while dling the slower it will dl i.e. dling a game while playing MW3 online.

I like all the generic idiotic responses from some people. If they don't have a problem it must totally be his connection.

There could be a number of reason as to why your PSN downloads are slow. We do not know what your connection is, so we should not say it is your connection.

From my understanding location plays a role. Some areas will just have horrible connection to Sony servers, others will not.

Now it could be your ISP's fault. Either the way they route the traffic from gaming devices or Sony. Or they could be throttling gaming connections. Your best bet would be to look on line or call your ISP to discuss it with them. Honestly you did not give a whole lot of information about your situation.

I personally have 100 Mpbs / 5 Mpbs and have what I consider mediocre download speeds compared to my PC. For example I can download 1 GB in about 2-4 Minutes on my PC. But a 1 GB download on PSN takes 10-30 minutes. So I personally believe it is down to Sony or my ISP.

The easiest answers are to get a faster internet speed, or to choose ethernet over wireless. However, I have heard some say that turning off DLNA will help speed things up too. I have never tried it though because my internet is pretty fast, and I don't use wireless.

Do a barrel roll!
Also, you can download things while playing certain games e.g. I was playing Duke Nukem while downloading Sniper Elite V2 demo :P
