Author Topic: Steam Download Speeds.  (Read 4199 times)

5.5 MB/s.

I can hit 20 MB/s if no one else is using the internet and I'm downloading a lot of games at once, like when I reinstall Windows.


when I downloaded Half Life 2 for some reason it started out like right at 60%. I downloaded the demo but I don't think that'd be apart of it, would it?


steam is bipolar when it comes to downloading stuff for me  :panda:

One moment it's 750 KB/s, then it's 100kb/s, then it's 500 kb/s, then it stops for a bit, then it's at 1 mb/s

stuff sucks


Awesome, I left CS:S overnight, only to come back this morning to see that it became 'Suspended' after my screen turned off.


FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU U-

It does that because it sees that the demo already had half the stuff you needed like textures and models, so it just needed to download the extra stuff in the full version.
A lot of games do this with Steam.

Congratulations for me, for peaking at 117kbps today :D I was genuinely surprised when I saw.

sometimes 2.6, lol

You have some stuff internet, bro.

You have some stuff internet, bro.

Which amazes me, because I have a 100GB Liberty Elite Bigpond ADSL 1, which says I should get at least 300kbps. I live in the centre of Adelaide, near a university.

:(

average of 70 kb/s


roadrunner highspeed internet can go forget itself

I usually get ~1.5mb/s.
However in the past week or so I've been seeing ~500kb/s or less. :/
It's not my internet connection, seeing as everything else is still just as fast as it used to be. Lately Steam has made a habit of being absolute stuff.
