i know you said you rebooted the router, but did you do the modem also? and are you trying to do anything else while downloading?
The download server is always slow. I suspect it has almost no resources dedicated to it. Since GR is still shiny and new I have no doubt that a huge amount of people are trying to download the patch so you aren't going to get high speeds.
Just observation from past major patches and updates. I'm pretty sure the download server is actually located on a netbook with a 4800 baud modem connected.
Don't count your weasels before they pop dink!
I've been asking around about this as I've just come back from holiday to a 6k/sec download speed. In 2 hours I have got 116M/672M and 25 hours to go. Surely this isn't right?
Done the usual, restart everything. Check my internet providers not doing something untoward but everything internet based is fast as normal, its just Coh thats on a go slow. Can someone give me any ideas what else I can do or what is going on? I'd like to se this Going Rogue that I pre-ordered oh so long ago.
Thanks in Advance

I'm testing my patience right now, cause after 1 hour and 10-20 minutes, I've downloaded only 851K out of the 5.8M from today's patch. Just in case it could be a failure on my connection I've tried rebooting both my laptop and my router, but it's working as slow as before.
My only guess, watching my connection has worked smooth like silk last few days, playing an average of 3-5 hours daily with just a few lag spikes and some lost conns, is that it must be related to the (huge?) amount of people trying to download it at the same time, if not I haven't the foggiest idea about what's going on.
Any more guesses out there?
