    Hey all, just wondering how long it takes for your downloads to complete, e.g FIFA ULTIMATE TEAM. I've got a standard Eircom Broadband pack(1meg I think) and the connection is fast online but when I go to download something it takes forever. Last week I downloaded the COD WAW maps and it took about an hour and a half to complete.

    It's a pain in the hoop.

    It took me about 2.5 hours to download Destroy all Humans.

    it's that crappy eircom router that causes it.
    I had a belkin router which i set the xbox up in a dmz..xbox downloaded at full speed no bother..
    Back onto the eircom router and the download speeds are crap again.
    My advice is to get a Linysys router..I'd use the belkin but imap's not working on the bloody thing.
