Question about Steam Downloads


Recommended Posts

Posted

im not really sure where to put this but

I got a question about Steam Downloads

how long are they supposed to take

for example skyrim or oblivion

 

because I downloaded at about 150kb on average so that equals around 8 hours for oblivion or 11 hours for skyrim

 

is this normal or is there a problem with my download speed

 

can I fix it?

 

because I don't want to wait a whole day every time I have to reinstall

Steam doesn't have a problem for me but 150kb is very slow my average speed is 1Mb , it's probably you ISP , what speed where you promised because many time they know the customers don't know hot to look into it so they give you less that was promised in the contract .

Check under settings->internet+cloud->Internet connection, if you've got the correct settings.

 What are the correct settings?

I think I got DSL/Cable and that's what its set to.

Steam said when I started the download that it would be 512kb average but its not anywhere near that

 

That average is not based on your internet speed but based on your settings inside Steam.

I went to settings--->Downloads + Cloud---> and I see

 

Internet Connection set to DSL/Cable

 

Game Server Browser Set to 3000

 

Download Region US- New York

 

Steam Cloud

Both Checked

 

Im sorry for not knowing what to do
