Sloooooow download


Recommended Posts

as you can see from what others are posting, it's not the servers since the speeds are very good overall. We cannot influence however what's happening downstream. Are you using a download manager? If not you should probably.

chanss, there is a little tool you can download and run to see where the bottleneck is.

http://winmtr.sf.net

Unzip and then run the exe. Enter the following in the host field:

battlefront.fileburst.com

or

205.234.109.163

Then hit start.

It's going to trace the signal and will show you where data is lost or extremely slow.

I just started to download your demo again from the Boomtown site and its going almost at 60 kb/sec, its still my fault that your game download is slow is it? Pherhaps Battlefront could move the game download to Boomtown too? So I could get it before Christmas!

Another great serivce is www.dslreports.com which analyzes your D/L speed & potential problems...

I am downloading from sweden so what i usually get from the US around 50-60 KB/s wich is not outstanding but okey for me. Around 15 kb/s as i get now simply never happend before.

chanss... there are so many parties involved in a download, and our servers are only at the very beginning of the line. If you have high data loss or bad pings in between, there is nothing we can do. Did you run that tool? What did it show? Feel free to post the results here. If it shows problems on the server side we'll fix it.

yes, it is... looks pretty good, better than mine :)

You should use a download manager with multiple connections. You will get a 500% increase in speed and more. Use Download Express if you want a recommendation, but of course you can try with anything you want. There is a post on top of the Forum from Matt with instructions for three or four of the most common DMs

No it did not work with Download Express, after 7 hours it said it was ready but when trying to open the file it started to download it again instead, so everything that was done is now gone. I have now unsinstalled that crap again. I am now downloading again without DE.
