download speed issues

Featured Replies

I currently have issues too, I get only around 50 kb/sec. (5-7 hours download time) while trying to download my copy after a windows reset.

I tried several times with different browsers, it's all the same.

Hi, I also have it. Only with FSLABS. So I think its a problem on their side.
I made a speed test, and downloades many files all around 10 mbit/s. But on fslabs I had only 50 KB/s.
With the forum I dont have the Problem.
I tried with a download manager, still the problem, but only if I download the A319, A320, A321....

Here you see if I download something from the forums.

And here the A320.. Its much slower...
Maybe someone of the devs can have a look.
I have the problems since 2 or 3 updates ago.

Yeah, here too, speed test shows great connection, everything else downloads perfectly,
only FSL redownload page is not going above 60kb/s, with occasional drops below 10 kb/s.... 

 

my speed test on fast.com:

This is really a bit annoying, I can't download the software. It's equal to the site being down, 1 day and 12 hours download time is rediculous.
And I assume asking for the installation files from a fellow simmer is pretty illegal, right? 

Update: downloading it via a VPN works.

Which suggests a routing issue existed.

What does that mean ?

In simple terms the (Internet) road between Stu and the server was closed - for roadworks or whatever and his new way took a much longer time along smaller roads.  With a VPN it was able to use a different route.

A okay. So maybe the problem on my side is gone in the future 

The question is, is it between me (castle Stu) and the server or between Germany and the server or MidEU or my provider etc etc. 
I just plug into my router, everything else works without problem. So I‘m really not sure what I could have done or could change/set to solve this on my end... 

Yea I wonder about this too. Or maybe becaus we are living in south germany :D

Whatever the reason, I have no idea what I could do on my end. 
Tried to continue downloading the 319 and 321 today, same as yesterday, download speeds below 50 kb/s.
Will again revert to VPN.

Yes. I am worried to. The problem is there since about 3 months. 
I have to download the Sharklets than throught the night :D

Usually yes, but there are a couple of free VPN providers around, just google it or search for it on heise, chip or computerBild.
