eXoduis Posted April 22, 2010 Share Posted April 22, 2010 Only one explanation... welcome to the nexus.. the world of the slug connection..The real explanation is.. the download port are CAPPED for non paying members you see... the top i get is 150kb... on a 30mb/s connection, even though the cap is supposed to be 500kb/s i came to realise something here on the nexus you cant get the top download speed... if i need a to DL a huge mod i go on planetelderscroll, which allows me to DL at 1mb/s+ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark0ne Posted April 22, 2010 Share Posted April 22, 2010 Both of you are in Europe and there are no normal download servers located in Europe, hence the slower speeds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pronam Posted April 24, 2010 Share Posted April 24, 2010 It depends on what you want...There is a subscription for every need. You could download most of the large files within a months time, if you'd like to have that for a longer period you take another. I've downloaded most files I wanted after my single months subscription, but I added a 3 month subscription to that when I knew about the enormous bill that has to be paid to keep this place alive and running. The more users/bandwith used..the higher the bill, it's a required limit...not a fancy way to earn money...they don't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ethre Posted April 24, 2010 Share Posted April 24, 2010 Pronam's correct. I spent maybe 2 years without Premium, before I finally manned up and bought a subscription. I don't download much anymore, so I have no real need of the subscription. However, if you think about how much the Nexus provides to the community - its absolutely worth supporting. If you want to think of it another way - for the cost of a subscription, you're expanding your game hundreds of times over. You can pay for a new game, or you can pay to support a site which provides the equivalent of hundreds of new games. Either way, I don't think you should be complaining about the free download speeds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
