Re: How do I set maximum download speed in origin?

Hey guys, yeah, I can confirm the response from @holger1405, there is no limit "cap" on Origin downloads, the only limit is your bandwidth.

    No it's not.

    I'm downloading with 2.3 mbit/Sec while my tested downloadspeed is way higher on a 150mbit/sec line.

    It's tested up from 80 to 170 mbit/sec.

    The limit is noeither your machine, windows or your provider, but the upload limit on the origin servers.

    I just tested my Origin Download speed.

    On a VDSL 50 line (Theoretical bandwidth 50.000 kbit/s = 50 Mbit/s) Origin downloads with 5,9 MB/s = 47,2 Mbit/s (94,4% of max theoretical bandwidth) after 50 seconds. 

    If you download with 2.3 Mbit/s on a 150 Mbit/s line, you have a problem with your connection.
