Bobstar Posted December 28, 2024 Posted December 28, 2024 Hi All, I'm not looking to get into the blame game before we start but, I'd like a sensible answer to the following question. My internet speed is 500mbs download and 60mbs upload. My computer is directly connected to the internet with an ethernet cable but, DCS only downloads at 18mbs. Is this a DCS issue or a provider issue. Don't want to scream at my provider and make myself look a complete idiot. DCS used to download at 30+mbs but, now seems to have fallen of a cliff. Best Regards.

Bobstar Posted December 28, 2024 Author Posted December 28, 2024 I'm 3685 miles away from you so, that may well be the reason I only get 18mbs?
MAXsenna Posted January 4 Posted January 4 I'm 3685 miles away from you so, that may well be the reason I only get 18mbs? You say your connection is 500Mbps I assume. Can you confirm if your download speed is 18MB/s or 18mbps. 18MB/s = 144mbps which is not really that bad, depending on where you are.Sent from my SM-A536B using Tapatalk
Bobstar Posted January 5 Author Posted January 5 Yep, download speed is 18Mb/s. Doesn't seem too bad now you explain it. Never knew about the Mbps & Mb/s thing? 1

MegaBytes are eight times faster compared to Megabits. Cheers! EDIT: MBps=MB/s≠Mbps/Mp/sAs you see. It's the capital or minor B/b that's important. Sent from my SM-A536B using Tapatalk
