So guys i have a 20Mb connection speed, how do i at least get it to download 2mb? is there a way to improve the speed?Ownsin
20Mb broadband at its very best would give you 2MB but you would literaly have to live right next to the hotpoint with know one else using it. What speed are you getting?

Well the highest im getting is 1.1 MB/S on steam, but on high servers that i download from, like Microsoft site i get like 2.2 MB/S.... so i don't know why im not getting that with Steam :(.

Well im not using wireless, im using a good router, and also my isp is one of the best in my country... my ping is low... so i just don't understand why steam wont go as far as 2.0 Mb/s.... i also don't have anything being downloaded while im donwloading from steam....

Are you trying to download something right now? When there's a big game release, servers usually slow down, since much like many other services, Valve has probably built their infrastructure based on the assumption that not all users will be downloading at full speed all at once.

Yeah, im downloading Dragon Age: Origins!?, i bought the pre-realese!
so the MB is more than the Mb right? Yes. There's 8 bits in 1 byte. If you've got an internet connection rated at 20mb, you'll typically download at about 2.4MB (Megabytes) per second at best.
Seeing as I'm on a wireless connection, and I don't have the best internet, I typically get about 350-400 kb/s. However, I am running a line underneath my house so I can plug into my sheezyneezy so we'll see how fast it is then :D

lol I hate all of you. I only get around 350 kb/s with my 1.5MBps connection. I wish I could get more. I dont know how to get it to go faster. Takes forever to download stuff. Sad days.

You could make it a lot faster if you get your self a 20Mb connection... :|.
lol and pay what...$60 a month or more for it? I mean AT&T charges $42 a month for a 6Mbps! Imagine what they would charge for 20Mbps if they even have that. I want to bump it to like 3 Mbps in hopes that Ill get at least 1 MB/s download speeds but now Im even skeptical about that. lol I know my University has like a 10Mbps connection or something. Its so fast I wish I could bring my computer in to download stuff.
I get about 230-240kb which is near my theoritical 256kb maximum Of course today that i started d/l left4dead 2 demo at some point i was getting 9bytes!!!
I have Verizon FiOs my download speed is usually anywhere from 1 MB - 9 MB.

You have a 75Mb connection? That's pretty high. How much does it cost monthly?
I dunno how much is costs. They guy said we have a 20mb connection now. When i downloaded the left 4 dead demo is was like 3.3 mb per sec but tf2 patches download around 7 mb a second. I don't really know too much about it but thats how it is.
70-500 kilobytes per second usually about 200 kilobytes. Why does everyone else get such fast download speeds I have broadband internet and I can play games online without lag?
Around 500-600 KB/s highest. Not too high. But when I'm downloading a full game on steam, I leave it overnight, and it will be done in the morning. :) Downloading demos that are roughly 3GB take me around 1-2 hours.
Around 1.2 MBPS... Unless my Imac starts randomly throwing a tantrum, lowering it's speed to around 300 KBPS on my macbook pro. Real pain downloading all 20GB of DA:O. Totally worth it, though.
