The problem is that the hosting network (HWCDN.net) has admitted to serious data center issues. It's on their website. So while some people have great pathways leading to the file, some of us don't, and get horrid download rates due to packet loss.

It has nothing to do with PC configs, ISPs or settings. It is downstream at the provider.

When running the Repair Tool, you can see the download rate. Currently, I am getting 14.78Kb/sec.

Taht shows why it takes a while to download for some, but doesn't explain why people have so many "my entire install is dead!" issues. 9 time out of 10, those issues are caused by impatient people hammer buttons, running 15 launchers or crashing the launcher out in attempts to make it run better the 2nd time around.

Sometime my laptop has a bit of a tiff and refuses to patch at a reasonable rate, and my solution is leaving it to patch, which it eventually does and tada, no issues.

Right now I'm at 72% download, so that gives me a 28% chance of failure. Wish me luck! Edit: Patch successful. YAY! I was scared for a minute when it got stuck at 100% applying the patch but it finished. Sovereignty and Population New Mining Mechanics

I'm using the launcher, and my manual rate calculation (based on noting the amount downloaded over several minutes) works out to the same (18.11 MB / 21:00 = 14 KB/s).

This is beyond terrible. CCP: Please respond!

What kind of set ups do people have that cause so many problems with the launcher and patches? I've never had a problem.

They have Eve installed on their Apple 2 running Windows ME hooked up to 2 Chinese knockoff PS2s to render the graphics graphics.

EVE is running fine on my Nintendo 3DS

But is it compatible with my comodore?
