Summarize your bug EA app is calculating 10 times wrong the actual and indicated bandwidth usage.
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Try once.
What happens when the bug occurs? Network bandwidth usage is indicated/calculated wrong inside EA app frameworks.
What do you expect to see? Correct bandwidth indication. This may have an effect on the internals of every game when played via EA app.
EA app / EA Background Service is indicating the network bandwidth usage 10x wrong (less) compred to the actual bandwidth usage. If someone @ EA is using this information for something, the information 10x wrong. The black boxes in the attachment is showing that EA Background Service is using only 119.3Mbits (megabits) but EA app in download app is actually showing the correct information which is >950Mbits (950megabits/s, ~95 megabytes/s) actual download speed which is almost 10x more than what EA Background Service is indicating. Why there is such elementary issues in indicating the correct bandwidth usage? Can this cause issues on gameplay if EA can not actually know what is the actual bandwidth usage of their services currently?
