The connections issues sticky as well as the Read This link below might help ya.
Usually it's a routing issue, whether it's your firewall, router, modem, the ISP itself throttling you, a bad server along the way to the download server...
and of course, if everyone's doing it at the same time, that'll slow it down.
Not a whole lot you can do. Search for the words Ping Plotter and see if you can find the thread that shows the server IPs. Get Ping Plotter freeware and run it against the servers to see if one of the servers on the way is high pinging, an indication it's the issue.
Past that, Hijack This and CoH Helper is a good idea to post.
Oh, and by the way, Welcome to the Forums, and welcome to the game!
August 31, 2012. A Day that will Live in Infamy. Or Information. Possibly Influence. Well, Inf, anyway. Thank you, Paragon Studios, for what you did, and the enjoyment and camaraderie you brought.

Hey there all...I just signed up for the free trial and am currently downloading the patches I guess.
Anyways, my problem lies in the fact that I'm only downloading at 41k/s.
I have an 8mbps connection.
you can see how this could be an issue.
I've already added the updater to the trusted application list for my firewall. Does anyone know what I could do to make this download faster?
