Re: Background service uses insane amount of wifi data

@turman8er this is happening to me.
At this moment,
I have BF2042 being updated, download at 410 KB/s.
And then the "EA Background Service" consuming 4 Mbps, which I have no idea for what.
It's blocking my internet use.

    Hey everyone.

    This is an issue that was being tracked and I wanted to see if you could do the following for me:

    Go into task manager, close down the background services
    Go into the EA App settings, change the download to 20MBs

    EA App's Cache (Top Left Menu > Help > App Recovery)

    Reboot the app, and see if there is a change.

  • please fix your launcher! I wont sit there 24 hours to download 1 GAME!!!! 1 Game! are you crazy
