I am trying to download Battlefield 3 update that is around 1300 MB big. At first it said 3000 minute dowload time and after checking on it in 45 minutes it was 1% done and 2600 minutes left. The demos that I wanted to download a few weeks ago also took forever. I dont think it is my connection and a few months ago I could download pretty quick, around 2 hours for 1 GB.

Does anyone know what could be the problem?

Are you using wireless? Reset your modem. Could be something with your isp. Do an internet speed test. Maybe PSN is clogged at the moment. Try again tomorrow maybe? Take it from there and post some results :) GL!!

I agree. I would suggest trying to download your content before you go to bed. There are not that many users online during the late hours of the night as there are during the day. You also have to consider that it's summer vacation for the kids so they are more acceptable to log-in and start downloading what they can from the limited amount of time they have to be online...lol. In all seriousness, it might be your router, or it might not be. See how long it takes to download something from your computer. If it takes forever, there is your problem.

2 hours for 1gb of data? Kind of slow...
