![]() I’ve called Bell tech support multiple times. I’ve done a ton of troubleshooting and I believe the issue for me is an extremely slow hop between 2 Bell routers. With a VPN connected, I can normally get 250-300Mbps. Max I get is 30Mbps until I connect a VPN. I use Bell Fibe in NS with 1.5 Gbps service and have always suffered with slow downloads since the Tech Alpha. Obviously I can’t say it will fix anyone elses problems as there are so many variables, but here’s what I did to get mine back to normal.įirst off from Windows settings go to update & security I found that setting it back to normal again along with the Windows delivery optimisations jumped my speed up from 30 to 300 MBps again. I don’t recall changing mine from default but it appears I had got this set to disabled. In this suggestion it mentions disabling a certain parameter. I’m assuming this works a bit like torrents with portions of the files being downloaded from a multitude of PC’s on the net.Īlso in one of the official MS posts on download problems it mentions a command prompt command that might help. Since MSFS is a Windows app it seems to benefit from the Windows delivery optimisation settings being enabled. ![]() I googled some previous suggestions on slow speeds and with a bit of tweaking I got my connection back up to full speed. I started the download and it was pretty slow at between 5 and 30Mbps, left it running while I cooked my dinner and checked again about an hour later to find it had only managed about 4%. I just assumed it was either the servers being overloaded or maybe my ISP was throttling certain types of traffic, I did contact them and they denied any throttling.įor SU5 I decided to see what I was getting and if it was still slow see if I could do anything about it. It’s been like that on all the updates (world and sim) since then. However sometime around SU3 I was suddenly getting around 10-30 MBps even though my speed was testing out ok on several different test sites. Subsequent updates all downloaded very quickly and in line with my expectations of a 300MBps connection. I managed to download the whole installation in about 2 hours with the max speed shown on some of the larger files at over 250MBps. I originally downloaded the game on the first day of it’s release in August 2020. I live in the UK and am lucky enough to have a Virgin Media cable connection of 300MBps Down/ 30Mbps Up. I’ve posted some of this this in a few threads since the SU5 update. If you haven’t got an unlimited plan, and you’ve hit your data cap, be sure to test and let us know if/when you notice the change.I have a few suggestions for people to try that will hopefully at least help some people to get download speeds improved. We’re told that we should expect a public announcement at some point in the next couple of days. Customers experiencing slow data speeds due to throttling now see our true network speeds (that they are missing due to being throttled) when they check their data speed connection using the OOKLA Speedtest app. On June 19, the OOKLA Speedtest app was removed from network throttling. Not the slower, throttled speeds.Ī short snippet we received from our source indicates that we’ll see it take effect from today: What that means is that those who have hit their cap, and are being throttled, they’ll be able to use the Speedtest app and still see the true network speeds in their location. Today, we’ve learned that T-Mobile is removing OOKLA’s Speedtest app from network throttling. Some are on the lower plans which restrict data speeds once you hit your allocated allowance. Not everyone on T-Mobile is subscribed to one of its unlimited high-speed data plans.
