I can't get past 83% downloaded on both computers. Is this supposed to be happening?

VGPro was going slow so I found a new mirror. Only takes an hour to download! I'm at 15% and just started.

The part up to 83% was previously downloaded with the background downloader.

It sounds like the peer tracker for the patch torrent is getting hosed. No suprise, really. I'd just leave it up and wait longer. Restart the patch download if it makes you feel better.

I had that problem, but once I opened ports 3724 and 6881-6999 on my router (forwarded them to my computer) it started moving pretty quickly.

What's especially annoying is that they *know* how many people will want the patch through the subscription numbers. They should have the sense, reason, ability AND money to have a capable distribution method in place for these large bugfix...err, sorry....patches.

Nope they shouldn't. I've seen a number somewhere which said 2 million users. Consider that this patch is 154MB big, that makes 2000000*154=308000000MB... If they would want to distribute that within 1 hour to all players that'd mean they need 30800000MB/3600 sec. = 85555MB/S. Not doable. (I feel that I've made some kind of calculation misstake there, but can't find it.)

You should of all expected it tbh.. its always like this when its a big patch :p

I for one dont actually expect A: The realms to come back up anywhere near when they said it would be (Its already past the time and they're still down) and B: To actually get on tonight due to sooo many people dling this stupid thing :p

You missed the part about a "capable distribution method". You're describling a plain old http/ftp/whatever max-rate one. Hardly an argument. There's no reason to get defensive over a commercial company you know - they won't thank you for it, won't praise you, won't give you a job and won't give you a free subscription.

Oh yeah - the subscription! The part where I pay to play. Or in today's case, pay to look at a 0% download or "connection refused" website messages.

I think they know. That's why we've all had the downloader running in the background for the past few weeks getting the majority of the file. I'm not trying to apologize for Blizzard...I sat there at 126/151 for a while also. Eventually I just downloaded the whole 454 MB file from Fileplanet. Took about 15 minutes.
