Incredibly Slow Downloads? (Forums : Support : Incredibly Slow Downloads?) Locked
Thread Options
Apr 22 2014 Anchor

Not sure what's going on but I'm getting incredibly slow download speeds from MoDDb. I'm on a 16mbps line, that's realistically pulling about 14-14.5, but I'm downloading somewhere close to 30-70KBps. Not sure what's going on, seems to be working fine on most other sites (e.g. Youtube, quora, daily motion, etc).

What mirror are you downloading from?

I tried downloading from any US servers, and am experiencing the same problem. I have literally tried them all. Even gamefront is slow. However lots of other sites have been tremendously fast, and I have a great 50mbps download speed.

Cheers!

What speed are you getting? What mirror are you using, besides game front,
What speed to you get from the euro servers? Does it apply to all downloads or just specific ones.

I am getting a 38 kb speed. I have attempted all mirrors. Normally I can download 8 mods at once , and have them on my desktop in a minute or tow at most. It applies to all downloads.

Thanks
William

In addition to that all other websites I download from including steam work perfectly fine.

Hello, I have spoken to the network manager and the servers and mirrors are performing really well, better than in the past so, it seems the issue is related to your pc or connection, we have not had further reports of slow connections, can u try another pc, reset your modem, or speak to your ISP.

Post a traceroute from you to moddb.com and you may be able to spot the bottleneck.

Here are both tests. Everything on mod db loads instantly, except for mod downloads. All pages load in a milisecond but the downloads are slow as hell.

Thanks!

When you download, get the download url and traceroute that, again is seems to be a issue relating to your pc / isp as you note all other part of the site work pefectly, so i dont see it being an issue with our servers, we just had a massive amount of downloads and whilst the servers worked fine, the mirrors and downloads did struggle, but no reports of slow speeds like you are mentioning so any additional info would be of great assitance on me supporting your issue,

can you download and tracert, cdn.dbolical.com or the url your downloading from and post the response times the ones above look really nice.

Hey. Thanks for all the help! I seem to have gotten things running much faster, and now it's just one mod having issues. "Calradia, the Imperial Age," for Warband. Thanks so much again! :)

Just a heads up that our mirrors have been overloaded over the last 3-4 days with a couple of big releases. Things should return to normal over the coming days.

Ah thanks Greg!

Is this issue still persisting because I am all of a sudden having the exact same symptoms, it is not my network or source.
