Steam download network usage 09/14/2023 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. I have a few suggestions for people to try that will hopefully at least help some people to get download speeds improved.
