[RESOLVED] Slow download - Scene5.cab

Post by SteveMac »

Hi

I have successfully managed to download all the individual component files all except the file Scene5.cab. Each time I attempt the download is very slow and is showing a download rate around 86 KB/sec and then stops after 3 hours. As mentioned all other files have downloaded fine with a download rate of around 560 KB/sec.

I have tried several web browsers and this is the only file causing me problems.

Is there an issue with Scene5.cab?

Regards

Steve

Hi Steve,

Can you try the steps explained in this thread here: http://www.prepar3d.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=120676
Specifically, try using a download manager. It may help if your files aren't downloading correctly.

Hi Brad

Will give the download manger a try - just seems strange that it is this one file that is very slow in downloading. 6 hours in and the download speed is now at 50 KB/sec with still an hour to go. When I attempt to download the other files again they are still downloading at speeds of 500 KB/sec with no issues.

I will let you know how I get on.

Thanks

Steve
