Premium server download speeds broken?

Xathian · 01-02-2008, 02:08 AM

All premium servers, UK, US, and Archive are giving me a site wide 32.6kb/s download cap, meaning if I download 2-3 files at once the total speed is still capped at 32.6kb/s.

My friend can download at 500kb/s no problem (This is the speed I USUALLY get, and still do on sites like Filefront) but no PC I have access to can download over 32.6.

Whats going on?

This is ok for videoes that have Filefronts but its no ok that Im paying for it but the biggest issue is I was trying to get an older video (Ming's Story Line video) and the only non-premium download is a dead torrent with no seeders so Premium is my only option for some.

Im in Southern Ontario, Canada and tried using Firefox and Opera, both are 32.6 capped.

It sounds really strange that your speed is exactly the same on all servers.
If this is the case, it sounds like a problem with your provider. However, we'll add more capacity in the next 2 weeks with more mirrors closer to where you live. Hopefully this will help if your provider can't find the cause
