D/l

What does d/l stand for in IT?

Download

When you're talking about software updates and Internet speeds, d/l typically stands for "download." Your company's IT department may ask you to d/l a new piece of company-mandated software, or your techie friend may ask you what your typical Internet d/l speed is.

In some instances, d/l can stand for other tech-related terms, including direct link, dead link, and data link. These meanings, however, are much less common than download.

Example

I still need to d/l the software update for the game to run on my machine
