    Default Download Speed

    I used to DL atleast 1-2mb/s until this week where i'm lucky to get 100kb/s. My internet is fine, all tests have been done. This happening to anyone else?

    Not here, where are you located? Might have to do with congestion or failures along certain routes.

    I figured it was some throttling as well. .

    Yeah I've been getting 60-80kbps. Checked with a friend in Indiana, same deal. Kind of a bummer, but it beats the heck out of nothing

    If possible, please post a link to the file you are downloading here so I can investigate. It could be that one of our servers is acting up. You can get the link by right clicking on your download manager (in Chrome or Firefox) and copying the link out. Just the server IP will also do.

    I'm getting it now, too, and was getting it a few days ago. I've been downloading PS2 isos.

    Please check now if it's improved. The server was a little bogged down earlier.

    It's even worse now. I'm having problems even breaking 25kb/s.

    I'm looking into this. Seems to be a timing/congestion issue because right now I can get 3MB/s from it. Could you please try and take a look again and see if it's better for you as well?

    It wasn't. I'm going to go ahead and assume it's an issue on my end.

    Still trying to debug this issue because right now I'm able to get 6-7M/s from the server so it looks alright. If you could run this tool against the server IP and post the report here that'd be helpful: http://winmtr.net/

    Seriously, you can stop worrying. It's on my end. Look at that, I'm losing packets all over the damn place. It's my fault for using wifi when ethernet exists.
