tyleriam Posted May 26, 2009 Share Posted May 26, 2009 Well... I get capped at about 97 kb/s on all files and if I am downloading just one I get capped at about 43kb/s... Started thread to see if others were having similar problems. (It is a problem as I was downloading Rivet City texture resolution pack 400% and it timed out at 93%. I have had to start the download again and wasted my limited bandwidth...not to mention I can't test the new fallout 3 mod!) :wallbash: :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tyleriam Posted May 26, 2009 Author Share Posted May 26, 2009 Sorry, I get that not much can be done and wasn't meaning to come across as a complaining person. more joke than anything. Here...it did it again but I will just retry until it downloads. :thanks: I may sent e-mail to staff but doubt they can do too much, just wanting to see if other people were having similar problems so I wasn't complaining if the problem was my PC.

buddah Posted May 26, 2009 Share Posted May 26, 2009 The cap you are referring to is a physical cop set as the maximum for the servers, you will have an actual cap somewhere lower depending on the server saturation and the sharing of the avail bandwidth at the time. It will vary greatly and will also depend on your physical connection speed to the internet, internet congestion and many other issues that can affect individual performance of downloads. Some ISP's also restrict speeds during times of congestion and high volume, others will restrict certain users who have a history of high use, this I know for a fact as I do this for a living. Others are even configured to drop you speeds after you reach a certain cap and will actually cap you at dial up speeds until the next month. It sucks but it is how the net works. The premium servers are uncapped, and are only restricted by other issues on the net and your connection speed. Buddah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Halororor Posted May 27, 2009 Share Posted May 27, 2009 Try downloading from a different server, I always have to download from the American servers as the London server is hellishly slow for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
