Updater Throttle Ablilty

[Ironmants726]

If I have one critique of DCS is that there is no way to throttle updates so that my computer isn't useless for 2-6 hours while DCS updates.

Would love the ability to set a throttle to say 10mb/s so I can get on with other things until DCS finishes updating.

You can do whatever you want on your PC while the DCS downloads, playing DCS including.

He probably means that the Updater chokes his connection.

Except anything online related as the download process is hogging all the bandwidth. That's what OP is asking, to limit how much the download process can allocate so you can still leave some percentage of your bandwidth for other things

OP. Your router probably supports QoS, unless it's a super cheaper old one.
Personally I run pfSense, a free fw/router software, which can be run on old hardware, Rasp's and even in VMs. I find most popular routers inadequate.
