Hi community.
Today I upgraded my internet bandwidth from 100/10Mbps to 900/400Mbps and excitedly went to test my download speeds on Uplay, Steam & Battle.net etc. However in all of those launchers I get approximately 40Mbps (5MB/s) download speed for any game.
My Debug Process:
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks for reading!
Today I upgraded my internet bandwidth from 100/10Mbps to 900/400Mbps and excitedly went to test my download speeds on Uplay, Steam & Battle.net etc. However in all of those launchers I get approximately 40Mbps (5MB/s) download speed for any game.
My Debug Process:
■ Before the change, I had been downloading at my bandwidth limit of 100Mbps (11.5-12MB/s) on any downloader, Steam, Uplay, Origin etc.
■ I have tested changing the region of download on steam, from New Zealand to Australia, and it still rains at 5MB/s.
■ My friend downloaded Rise of the Tomb Raider on steam earlier on New Zealand servers at 12MB/s (around 100Mbps, his bandwidth limit), so it is not a server problem.
■ On speedtest.net I get the full advertised bandwidth, as seen from picture below.
■ I have 2 Ethernet adapters, one being Intel i-219v, and the other being Killer E2200. Both are gigabit capable, and both drivers are up-to-date.
■ Changing Speed / Duplex settings for both Network adapters seem to have no effect, changing from 1.0Gbps Full Duplex to Auto Negotiation does nothing.
■ On either adapters I get no more than 5MB/s on Steam / Battle.net / Uplay.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks for reading!
