Well you have a slow internet. Free up as much as you can. Disconnect any phones, tablets, or laptops from the wifi that you can spare. Make sure you have all the other programs closed on your computer, especially steam or youtube. And just wait it out.

I had the same speed, took me from 6PM to 3PM. I have ~15mbps download, I think their upload was stressed.
