    Is it normal that at the rate it's going it will take days to install all of the updates on a new download? I'm at 153M of 10,449M and it's doing one M per minute. My internet is super fast so I don't understand why it would take so long.

    No, it's not. Close and re-launch EQ.

    I tried that, same deal.

    I'm just coming back after something like 10 years away. The max level at the time I was playing was 85. I don't remember what server my mage is on...but this download is crazy and discouraging me from wanting to wait long enough to find out.

    Disable your firewall or antivirus. Maybe try running patcher as administrator? Something on your end is throttling it

    I turned off Malwarebytes, Windows Defender, all of the Windows firewalls and ran it as administrator, I did a speed test on my internet and it's 112 download. Same thing, ~1M per minute.

    I have now, and not one of those things helped.

    Ive been trying to install today as well and had similar issues (mine will stop after a few minutes). Now i cant get the install to even start. Ive been through all of the troubleshooting as well.

    if speedtest is also returning a low rate, then something is eating your bandwidth, it's not a patcher issue. maybe turn off your torrents you're doing in parallel :p

    If you live with other people, then one of them might be doing something to use it. Turn off all extra devices and see what happens.
