It looks like your results are incomplete, however, if your speed is limited on all of our servers this is most likely to be an ISP or routing problem. Perhaps you could try with a VPN?

Note: For some reason before the trace can finish the "Run" program closes itself. This usually happens around the 13th, or 15th hop. Not sure whats up with that, but I've just been grabbing whats there before it closes out.

[HeyYou]

Type "CMD" in the run box, and that will open a command line windows. Do the tracert there, and the window *should* remain open until YOU close it out.

[tonganking101]

- Thank you for the information! The Trace was able to finish in the Command line windows

I did some other testing to see the download speed for Nexus as compared to other sites and tools as well and here are the results:

 

Nexus: 1.6 - 1.7 MB per/sec

 

Loverslab: 10 - 11 MB per/sec

 

Steam: 24 - 25 MB per/sec

 

Moddb: 740 KB per/sec

 

Youtube: 9 - 15 MB per/sec

 

- I'm not sure if that info helps, but I really want to try to figure this out, or at least find out some next steps. I've already called my ISP and they don't seem to know whats going on. I was wondering if they specifically slowed down the speeds to your servers, but that doesn't seem to be the case. They say that they can't really do that specifically to one website. I'm not sure what to do. At this point if my problem is some mystic out there event that can't be solved I just want to know so I can suck it up and download at 1.7mb per/sec. The only thing keeping me from going cave man early 2012 download boy is the hope that I can fix it through this channel. If its not possible then that's a bit on stress relief in the end.

[Pickysaurus]

Thanks for the info.

 

Based on those tests from other servers, only LoversLab and ModDB are a fair comparison (Steam and YouTube are billion dollar, world-wide companies). 

 

Were you able to use a VPN, preferably one that is based somewhere else in the US or abroad? 

 

We don't have anything on our side limiting you so I'm not sure where the problem lies along the line.
