You can increase the download speed for installing packages using DNF by updating the maximum number of simultaneous package downloads.
Start by editing the /etc/dnf/dnf.conf file:
$ sudo nano /etc/dnf/dnf.conf
Add the following line to enable DNF parallel downloads:
max_parallel_downloads=10
Another option is to select the fastest mirror from the Fedora public mirrors by adding the following line:
fastestmirror=True
