Download Woes

[wiggins]

I'm having download woes! Can some one please tell me why when i try to download big files like Ragnarok online (even the incremental version), i always staret with great download speeds of around 30 kB/s which drop to about 10 kB/s within the next 2 seconds, stay there, and then after a while, the download window says it's downloading, and says it should finish completely in say 1 and a half hours, but after 2-3 hours, it is still in that same place without progressing a single percent. How can i solve this? Small downloads work fine. My internet connection is ADSL through a wireless internet router. Thanks!
God bless you,

Usually when this happens to me, it's a bad server. Sometimes my downloads start good at 500kbs...then drop to 100...and eventually stop. I pick a different server and it works fine.

Ooh...a wireless router...how's that working for you anyway? I've been wanting to get one for awhile.

Well everythign about the internet through the router works great... except for my download woes

are you using bittorrent?

[wiggins]

No. I do not use any p2p or filesharing programs like bittorrent, kazaa, emule, etc.

mmm not sure but i use wired router has not given me any problems since i started using it... but like master kenzo said...the same thing happens to me so yeah just try a different server

I don't know how to do that. Thanks for the suggestions guys. I managed to bypass my problem by downloading a smaller file, GetRight which is a download manager that allows downloads to resume, and can even speed up your downloads! Thanks guys!
