Too bad it wasn't Bad Company 2, I have an unused Limited Edition of BFBC2 on disc that I could have sent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards

Each download started with 1,5 MByte (16 Mbit) and went down to 35-40KByte after ~90%. I have paused the DLs and performed a speed test. Result: 16Mbit. So it was Origin.

I had the same problem with the previous updates too. Your download speed is dependent on numerous factors. * Your ISP. * Your network hardware. * Your software environment (other applications using network bandwidth). * Overall connection speed to nearest CDN node (ping) . Since these factors are unique for every user it is near impossible to diagnose "why" you are getting slower than average download speeds unless you want to start getting into packet captures and things like that which are beyond the scope of this forum. Since you mentioned you get better rates through other programs (Firefox etc.), if I had to guess I would say the problem lies between your ISPs network and the nearest Akamai server. Akamai technologies are used for Origin's content delivery system. I can tell you that Origin will use any available network bandwidth while you are downloading a game. So my advice would be to shut down any other programs that may be using up bandwidth (Skype, file sharing) and try running your downloads when you aren't going to actively using your PC. Let us know if you have any other questions.

The prob is the "nearest CDN node". In Steam I can select a download server manually. This would be a nice feature for Origin. But it's EA...
