Fileplanet sub question? Speed is mega slow...

[Rameses]

Hey guys,

Used fileplanet off and on over the years, so I recently decided to re-do a sub with them to download some demos and updates etc...

Its soooooooooooooooooo friggin slow? 40k/bps if that?

I thought I had the basic account, so upgraded to the annual one, and paid upfront.

Is this how they have become? Take money, offer crap speeds?

If so, they've had yet another 'sucker'

I tried both DiRT and a B:Vietnam update and both are below 40k/b

The problem happened maybe 2 weeks ago now, when I resigned up using the $3.30 a month option and immediately started to download DiRT...

Never gave it a thought, and canceled the download.

Its not until now that I actually need a few massive patches that again its failing badly...

But they have now got me as I decided to 'upgrade' to pay an annual fee, instead of per month; which basically doesn't upgrade ANYTHING since I re-read it all

$29.99 = i fail.

I can understand there being mega-load as its the COD4 demo etc, but it were the same two weeks ago...

I've switched off the Firewall as suggested, emptied cookies and uninstalled their download software...but ALL to no avail same now @ 40kbps but mostly less
