I was until i talked (in a convincing manner) to my ISP (throttling is illegal where i live) and suddenly... everything is faster (yet it always showed between 40-50mb/s on speed tests, before and after).
I have a legit update on this. I don't think it is my ISP because Hulu, Netflix, email, etc are all working fine, and speed tests still showed my download speed of 20 mbps.
When I opened the EVE client, the download speed was literally CRAWLING. Within 15 minutes, I had downloaded a whole 2.72 MB's of the patch! (pre-56k dialup speeds).
I then tried the link above to download the launcher as linked in the forum. AGAIN, the download speed was CRAWLING, all the while Hulu / Netflix / Speedtest.net continued to show just fine.
I then did only one thing:
I connected to a VPN through Private Internet Access (a service I paid for a few months back).
Now within the time it took me to type this (3 - 5 minutes) I have downloaded 460, 461, 462, 470 MBs of the patch, and it is still flying by. I decided to retry the launcher. Likewise, the launcher (all 20 megabytes) downloaded in a few seconds.
CCP / Infrastructure guys, I believe this issue is somewhere between your end and at least the southeast USA. My VPN connected me to Dallas and then I noticed the speeds take a huge boost in speed. I am at 705 MB downloaded now.
My theories on this issue:
1) there a DDOS in the southeast region between us (I have Time Warner Cable) and one of the download servers, I'm connecting to map2.hwcdn.net, for what it's worth.
2) Time Warner Cable all of a sudden realized they hate map2.hwcdn.net and decided to throttle to .5 kb / s.
3) Something at map2.hwcdn.net decided to throttle the southeast USA (if only the people affected are in SE region). |

I didn't know EVE was written in Ruby!
...watching my processes in task manager run the rubyw.exe interpreter while applying patch - at 40% applying now.

My advice - if you don't have a VPN / VPN service you can use, I'd definitely recommend Private Internet Access. When on public wifi with a laptop / cell phone, it keeps your data safe from rogue access points broadcasting as 'Starbucks Wifi' or 'Google Wifi' while they sniff the packets you send out and do nasty things with.

EDIT:
And I am in Florida as well, near Tampa! |

If you can guide me and CCP won't ban me for doing it I'd be glad to.
I'm still a newb, and I like where this newb is going so far. |

Trace complete.
hop 8 is in the UK so here's my question, Is there a reason a connection from the US is being routed to the UK?
Gremzd, that IP address is located in London:

I'm still a newb, and I like where this newb is going so far. Open launcher -> Setting (cogwheel in upper right) -> Patches tab -> export latest patch (and I hope it works for you as I have it grayed out) Then upload it somewhere or maybe make a torrent
I did that, but I don't think the launcher is looking to the new patch. The exported file was only ~450 MB, whereas the latest patch is 1.1 GB. |

Here is a torrent for the file. My upload sucks... so I ask that each of you continue seeding it for a few days to let the others grab the patch with our combined speed. My upload max is 2 mbps... so....

The torrent file is located at the link above. I'm also uploading the .patch file manually, because Google will probably make it available to you quicker than I can upload it to you after slowly uploading direct to it.
Check back in an hour or so and the .patch should be there. In the meantime, the torrent should work. |
