Hi All!  I bought 29 items, trying to download 1 part 86.49 MB. I have high speed cable internet. Tuesday I downloaded a item of 115.46 MB in less than 2 minutes. But this one told me it would be 12 days plus to download it. Plus it would keep failing. So, I tried others I bought. They say and do the samething. Any idea of what I can do?

    I picked a fairly large download, (I download manually BTW) and am currently getting 2.4Mb/s  which is about average for me.

    edited to say, and download finished  292mb just over 2 mins.

    I would try stopping the download, clearing the cache to remove the parital download and maybe try rebooting your router.

    I'm having trouble too. Can't get above 100 KB/s and it keeps failing the downloads angry.

    Its nothing to do with my router, cos I can download stuff from other sites very quickly. Its DIM.

    CloudFlare is reporting DNS delays.  says a fix has been implemented and is being monitored.

    Thanks Chohole. Don't think their fix is working very well though...

    nope.  Strange that I got such a good rate, and others are still having problems.  Sometimes I get my feed from London, and sometimes from Manchester as I am equi-distant from them both apparently.

    They didn't specify where the DNS errors were originating from.

    Nope it's still not working. Wished they would try something else. Before I ask for my money back. I can spend it else where.

    In various and sundry places, the wired world has had some "storms" ... could be a tree somewhere.

    Asking for your money back is a bit silly isnt it, Blaming Daz for broken traffic routers is like blaming a car manufactorer for getting a flat tire running over a nail. Neither one has any direct control over that.

    Let's put it this way...if you live in the US, internet traffic is a mess right now...and it's all down to the weather.

    The remnants of Patricia are basically cutting the country in half.
