  • As I've mentioned before, my internet is pretty bad. But the slow speed isn't even the worst part. What I have to do to get internet is disconnect from the wifi access point, change my MAC address, and then reconnect, and then sign in to xfinity and use a trial session for an hour, and when the hour is up, I must repeat this.


    The problem I have is that it will take me a bit over an hour to download the file, and I can't just pause the dl, and do my thing and then unpause, I tried this already, and it tells me "unknown network error".


    Would you consider making a torrent for the setup file? Then I could pause and unpause all I want. I'll even seed! Pleeease? :bcrying:

  • ... do you use a download manager ? could help speed up the download process and shorten the download time under the mentioned "One hour" limit.

  • I mean I use google chrome. I don't think any other download manager would work. If my internet is slow, then it's slow, there's no getting around it. I guess I'll go look for a download manager, but I am skeptical.


    Edit: Also I'm reluctant to go installing random things like "download managers" on chrome because often times they are adware, which is really annoying, and tough to get rid of on chrome.

  • there are standalone download managers which dont require chrome

    Only dead fish swim with the stream.
    Don't discuss with idiots. They only drag you down to their level and then beat you with experience there.


    This is ten percent luck,
    Twenty percent skill,
    Fifteen percent concentrated power of will,
    Five percent pleasure,
    Fifty percent pain,
    And a hundred percent reason to remember the name!

  • lmao dude this sounds awful do you live in somalia?


    LOL No I don't live in Somalia, but my dad is a *insert string of obscenities here*, so I don't really get nice things like internet and I'm lucky if I get basic life necessities. So it's more like North Korea.


    Also, yeah guys, even with IDM I can barely get of 200kbps. Like I said, there's no getting around a bad internet connection.


    I'm thinking I could maybe take my laptop to my friend's house and download it there. It'll be awhile before I can do that though.


    Update: Wow tried it again, and all of the sudden I get over 1Mbps I honestly didn't think my connection was capable of that. O_o
