Thankfully, I'm not American so I can't tell you one way or the other. But from what you've said, I'd immediately suspect your ISP. You could try to work it out through usinga simple IP route trace. If you're getting abonrmally slow across the board, then you might want to monitor your system usage under Task manager while downloading, it could be your hard drive can't keep up.
So, your speed is fine, and it does depend on the game in question. I mention it to show you how far you can go. I've had success with the Antarctic Station before years ago, but I don't know if that one's still available. Also think about which countries are less populated or spread out too. So think or Google what countries are currently fast asleep, and go for them.
So if your region is congested, chances are your neighbours are too. Don't make the rookie mistake of thinking it's like online gaming where you choose another one near you. Lastly, if speeds are slow generally, then change your download region. Others, like Ark SE, will download a chunk, stop, decompress files and then write them, then download another chunk, and so on. Some will appear to just stream constantly at one speed. Couple with this the fact that all games download differently. The biggest bottleneck isn't usually internet but your disk drive. So you have to take the steam reported number and multiply it by 8 to get the conversion.Īnd 42*8 comes out at 336 which is pretty damned close to your reported speed.ĭo also note that if it appears to take time to install games, you're barking up the wrong tree. What you're making the mistake with is that the reported speed of download on Steam is in MEGABYTES per second, not megabits that most people normally use. Ah, I hate to point this out to you but if you're getting 42Mbps that means your speed is FINE.
