Download slow, only in EA App

Hello,

I am re-downloading Sims 4.
Issue that I have now, is that I barely hit 1mb download, most of the time I am stuck at 200kb/s.

Things checked so far:
- Emptied EA cache
- Restarted Router & PC
- Opened EA App as administrator
- Checked download-speed on other apps: Steam downloads with 12mb/s as usual
- Tried to download without any other programs open
- Pausing and starting multiple times 

If this goes on, I will probably need a week until I downloaded my 22 packs + basegame.
Any other idea?

    OMG... haha how stupid! I was ready to delete my game.. had the same issue. Did all of the recommended steps. But clicking "pause-and-play-button" like a maniac ten times in a row actually helped :D
