why it's so dificult to download

i download psx iso suikoden II, but it's so slooow.. average speed i got just 5kbps sometimes i got no speed ( 0 kbps ) for a moment, i'm using IDM. but while downloading it, i try to surf from my browser and it seems that nothing's wrong with my speed.. the browser work as it should without lag etc.. do u have any idea? ( sorry for my bad english, i'm just a boy -__- ) thx

Sounds like your internet connection.Go to the following page and tell me how long it takes to load the vid.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZpeqaDo9xwAOnce the buffering bar is full tell me.If it takes longer than my time, then you got slower net than me.

Won't help, if all he's getting is 5kbs something is actually wrong with his connection with the internet.

using idm or the browser?

Im on mobile broadband and its slow but im getting over 200kbs now downloading a ps1 game.
It must be you connection, 5kbs is what I used to get 10 years ago on dial up.

nope, there's no background app that uses connection, just the IDM. do virus do these kind osf thing? coz i cant open my task manager although i have fully scan my comp ( i use avg internet security 9.0 ) and have checked my registry with winASO + RegGenius

(cried) i dunno much things about connection ..
the worst part is as you said, the point's effect after 24 while i cant download it yet ..

Im not sure im not good with computers, loonylion will be here at some point and help you.
Try using freedownload manager, its what im using see if that helps.

so weird.. i tried to download FDM and i got speed up to 16kbps ..

have you tried the other server?

we only have one server now.virii/malware can cause your internet to slow down, usually because they're using your connection to send spam or attack a site. If you have a slow connection like you have its a lot more noticable.in this case it could have been IDM for some reason.

Wow, I get better speeds then I thought.

My dad has higher (80 MB/s)
