So while I was trying to download Nintendo games through a source and through VPN. Things started well with one game that took 8 minutes to download at 11MBps. When downloading another game, it got to 93% and immediately started going to 200 ~ 500kbps and was going to take longer.
Has anyone dealt with this before and should it be a cause for concern? Anytime this has happened to me, I assume something or someone was on to me and immediately have to abort.
Traffic shapers can prioritize connections or streams differently, even if they can’t see inside them. Higher priority for quick connections, like interactive web page views, diminished priority for “oops that’s actually a bulk download it seems”.
Downloading how? Maybe the server is just slow.
If they were on to you, you wouldn’t know until you either got a letter or someone showed up with a warrant.
Just a connection issue with the seeder/uploader. That happens sometimes on downloads, but it’s rare.
