Sarutoba Posted March 15, 2019 Share Posted March 15, 2019 Patches used to take minutes. Now they take hours. I have a 155 Mbps download speed. The patch is downloading at 5 KBps. This has been happening for the last few patches. I have googled the issue and tried all of the solutions provided (turn off IPv6, disable multi-threaded rendering and Launcher GPU acceleration in the launcher) and still 5 KBps. What else can I do to fix this? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rivyn Posted March 15, 2019 Share Posted March 15, 2019 Same for me, actually. 100mbps on my end, yet this patch has me at 5 - 15 kbps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wh1TeDeaTh Posted March 15, 2019 Share Posted March 15, 2019 The last few patches and updates have really been slow for me/also have a 100 mb/s (on speedtest) but on downloads the highest it went was 3 mb/s but 90% of the time its mostly on the hundreds Kilobytes and on this patch only 20-30 😕 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hayabusa97 Posted March 16, 2019 Share Posted March 16, 2019 Welcome to the club of slow update hell. Starting to feel like the day money gets put into server upgrades is the day Elite Dangerous gets Space Legs 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raiderpb Posted March 16, 2019 Share Posted March 16, 2019 My antivirus was causing the slow download. Disable it temporarily. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cerious7 Posted March 26, 2019 Share Posted March 26, 2019 @raiderpb thanks man you're the best. I was trying to download it several days with 1-20kbit/s. I read your comment, deactivated antivirus and now its running with 2 MB/s. Thanks!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(XBOX)DakVoidcloaker Posted May 7, 2019 Share Posted May 7, 2019 (edited) Downloads are slow because the servers are slow. My down speed is 200x faster than the 500 KB/s I'm getting on this update right now. No money spent on hosting servers (peer hosted) and seemingly very little money spent on update distribution servers, at least on xbox side. UPDATE: 200-500 KB/s The ~250 I'm getting now is an average including all of the faster download periods. I've been downloading the same 10 MB for the last 10 minutes. I estimate that I'm actually getting less then 100 KB/s down. Now in ISDN speeds, rapidly approaching dialup speeds. Atrocious.

Quetsweyo Posted June 7, 2019 Share Posted June 7, 2019 Same here, for the last week. Download used to take 30-40 minutes, now it's 1.5 hours. I play at the library so that may be an issue. The IT here is useless, no point in asking them any more. Is there someting I can do about this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ozakin Posted June 12, 2019 Share Posted June 12, 2019 no response from support.....crickets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhappleSauce Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 Tuning in to let you know it's still happening. I looked up ways to help the speeds and did some messing around myself to no avail. Just sitting at 1mb/s TOPS. I'm going to search the forums and see if anyone has addressed or even acknowledged the issue.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hobie-wan Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 You guys know that sections of the internet between you and what you're connected to affect the speed of things too right? Unless you're plugged into the same hub in the same room as the thing you're connected to, there are other computers and transmission lines passing the information along and any problems on that path can slow things down.

Jynzo0 Posted July 1, 2019 Share Posted July 1, 2019 I can confirm that disabling Avast (Antivirus) brought my download speed from 3 mb/s to full capacity of 40-50 mb/s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zam0lxes Posted July 12, 2019 Share Posted July 12, 2019 disabled the antivirus, download starts at 7Mb and by the 35% of the download speed drops and i get Download Error and the download restarts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quetsweyo Posted July 14, 2019 Share Posted July 14, 2019 Turning of the firewalls and proxy speeded it up some. Still have days where it takes almost 2 hours. Hobie-Wan, it downloaded for 3 months between 30-4o minutes evey day and then turned into a toaster. Warframe support sent me the firewalls and proxy idea.

Right, and computers and connections along the way can have issues from time to time. Road and TV broadcast conditions change all the time too.

Quetsweyo Posted July 15, 2019 Share Posted July 15, 2019 Today at this pos library it's been 2 hours and it's 59% downloaded and 1MB/s. Finished The Second Dream yesterday and can't wait to get back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caine2112 Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 I have a 300 mb/s fibre optic connection. I can download a 25 GB game off of steam in less than 10 minutes flat. Yet when I do ANY patch from the Warframe launcher (note: Warframe is installed directly from their website, not through Steam), I am often downloading at a measely 2 mb/s at most. It can take the same amount of time as a 25 GB game, sometimes longer. A serious investigation needs to be conducted into this matter by their server engineers.

dogbus Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 (edited) "Measly 2mb/s" LMAO Here I am, steadily downloading between 50-150kb/s when updates come through. Perhaps you should educate yourself on the correct terminology to use for downstream vs link speeds and the difference between a megabit and a megabyte....as well as how networking functions as a whole.

rj134 Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 (edited) Let me just necro this one one cause it's one of the top search results on your's truly. I ran into the same issue. Turns out Windows 10 Virus protection seems to be the culprit. The second I disabled it the download went from dial-up modem speed to the 400mbps it's supposed to be on my connection. Just don't forget to turn it back on when the DL is done. It does have its merits. Edit: words Edited September 4, 2019 by rj134 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Methanoid Posted September 10, 2019 Share Posted September 10, 2019 I have weirdly inconsistent speeds for 4 of my warframe installs, 1 went at normal 8mb/s(ish), 3 of them varied from 30k/s to 80k/s, gotta admit this is the first time ive had a speed issue with the launcher since 2013 till now.

Nythus Posted March 14, 2021 Share Posted March 14, 2021 Necroposting but I think I found the solution for people that only uses windows anti-virus, uncheck Bulk download and Agressive download options in the launcher. If the error presents again try checking those options again. At least that fixes the error for me every time it presents, just altern between checking and unchecking those options until its back to your regular download speed.
