cordite Posted March 22, 2018 Posted March 22, 2018 Why is the HTTP download regularly 2.5x to 3x the size of the torrent download? Unfortunately, the DCS torrent crashes my modem a few minutes after starting, so I can't use it. Has anyone found a way to bypass the torrent completely, so it will start the HTTP download immediately?
crazyeddie Posted March 22, 2018 Posted March 22, 2018 You can do that yourself, stop/cancel the torrent as soon as it starts and it gives you the option to go to an HTTP download.

And I do. I'd like to do that automatically, as waiting for and clicking through those dialogs is a bit time consuming. Any idea why on earth the HTTP download is so much bigger? edit: I'll also clarify, its a standalone speedstream dsl modem that crashes; the router, a dlink, is fine. Edited March 22, 2018 by cordite
