Title: Need volunteers to run a quick download test
Post by: Pyro on February 23, 2012, 03:09:08 PM
I'm looking for some people to attempt to download a file from our website and see if they are getting a super slow download speed.  Just start a download of the game to see if it's downloading at normal speed and then cancel the download.  Let me know if it seems normal for you or if it's really slow.  Thanks.

Downloading normally from my work system, which is slow in the first place, but it is at least "normal".
I'll try later this evening when I get home on the 18meg speed.

Mine held steady at about 1.3 Mb/sec for 30 seconds before I cancelled it. Thats about my average so it appears to be ok.

I started a download of the game at 6 pm eastern I was getting 100-150 kb download. I had just finished downloading new a new driver package and it was much faster than the game.

Am I late?
Primary 40-80, secondary 65-80. Download time estimated +1 hour.
Speedtest.net from Joensuu to Fort Worth/One Source Communications ping 165 (normal), download 5.5, upload 1.2.
Same test from home to my Operator Telekarelia ping 13, download 16,9, upload 1,48. Paying for max 24/2, so the local results are acceptable.

Took 2 hours to download te game, only for my virus protection said there were corrupted files and destroyed the download when it finally finished.
