It will largely depend on location , DNS used and ISP routing , if you want to try you can change DNS servers and as it will likely resolve to cdn-patch.swtor.com to a different CDN, if you know how you can determine what dns server resolves too by using nslookup
When I was with iinet at one address best I could get was 400 - 500 KB/s , I then moved house and used Telstra and then got 11.36 MB/s

4 days downloading the game at 200 / kb and 300 / kb, is the only game that I can not play since I can not download it.
From the moment you start to download it download the following games: NierAutomata, Black Desert, ffxiv, warframe, borderland 2, LOL and archeage to verify that my internet is not the problem or the distance.
I work in a hosting company and from the company try to download it with the same result
Which we have 1 gigabit fiber optic network.
I give up, I will try to play another game but I hope they solve it. Because it is difficult for new players to try to join if they present problems and just see post or look for some solution you find many more problems with the same problem.
How much space does the swtor folder use?
It may not be too long to finish
Sorry if I sound a little angry, I just want to play 😞
EA QV TeamCurrently my own SWTOR folder is sitting at a little over 39GB, and that should be the bare minimum being fully patched up. Once you've done the basic troubleshooting and made sure your connection is stable, there's not much we can do on our side to help download speeds sadly.
And sounding a little angry is completely understandable. Having to wait four days to download the game would definitely get to me as well. I've only had to download the game once (back when it was 25GB) on a mobile data dongle and it certainly wasn't a fun wait.
How is the download/installation looking now?
@EA_Kipling I think it's the last download, "english assets 1" and the bottom bar is full, hopefully
