INCREDIBLY slow download times with my XPS 8700. Why?!

I really hope this is the last issue that I have with my new Dell XPS 8700 (Standard Base) computer....

Since receiving my new Dell computer, I have successfully downloaded one file and had to stop the download of a second one because it was simply downloading at a snails paste.  Why does it download SO SLOWLY?! This is NOT the performance that I was expecting from this computer.  I've never had a computer download this slowly before. It's ridiculous! I attempted to download a 10 GB file (computer game) and it read that there was 12 hours remaining!!!! The file that I was successful at downloading (88 MB) took 10 minutes to download!

Computer specs:

4th Generation Intel Core i7-4790 processor (8M Cache, up to 4.0 GHz)

16 GB DDR3L

NVIDIA GeForce GTX 745 4GB DDR3 video card

2 TB hard drive with 7.200 1/min.

Dell Wireless 1704 + BT4.0 (802.11b/g/n, 1x1, 2,4 GHz, Bluetooth 4.0)

Please help. Other than this and one other issue, I really like this computer. Any insight and advice to fixing this (if any) is very much welcomed. I am a total computer novice so any information that you may be able to provide me with, please make it easy for someone like myself to understand. Thank you. (:
