EA App - Slow Download?

[Jase]

Looks like I'm now forced into using the new EA App instead of Origin but the download speed is terrible with it.

I just tried downloading F1 2023 which is about 60GB and I was getting about 2Mbps whereas with everything else I get around 700Mbps or more.

I've had a google and there are lots of posts about it but I haven't found a definitive solution.

Anyone had similar issues or know the solution? I'm using Amazon Eero Pro 6 router (wireless)

To answer my own question, just found something that worked, running the App "as administrator", now getting 75MB/s

Not sure if there are other solutions but I can tolerate that, I guess.

Can I get it to automatically run as administrator?
