Question for Verizon hotspot users

[Chef042]

Is anyone who uses a verizon hotspot having issues with downloads running very slow (less than 50k/s) or just stalling out for 5-20 minutes from this site?

 

Just to get some other stuff out of the way, I download the majority of mods while at work or elsewhere and bring them home on a USB drive, however I run into the issue of needing to grab the odd patch or having something that I forgot to grab. I want to also say that I have 0 issues when downloading from here using any other connection. Unfortunately, this is pretty much the only solution I have for connectivity at home due to living in a rural area.

 

I do not believe this is an issue with Nexus at all. I spent about 3 hours on the phone with tech support and got elevated a couple of times. They asked me to ask here if any other verizon hotspot customers were running into the same issue, as it may be that verizon themselves are throttling the site for some reason and those techs are unable to see it.

 

I just want to state again that I am very happy with Nexus and I do not think it is their problem at all. I don't have any other options for connectivity at home due to geographical restrictions. Im just starting to get frustrated when it can take multiple hours to download a 20-30mb file (and yet while said slowdowns are occuring I have no problems visiting other sites), and when I'm basically not getting what I'm paying for from that phone company.

 

If anyone else is experiencing this, or not having any problems at all with the same service, I'd love to hear about it.
