Trying to download a beta for a new game… download speed is averaging about 50Kb/s…
After doing a speed test, I’m not sure why it’s going so painfully slow…

Anyone have any idea what would make my actual download speed be so slow compared to the test? This is painful! 
If you’re in Rupert, try using the vancouver speedtest server.
The bottleneck in your case is probably either Citywest’s link to the rest of the world, or the beta game’s download server’s connection to the rest of the world. Testing your connection from your house to Citywest’s web server doesn’t really test “real world” bandwidth (well, other than to sites in Prince Rupert).
I suspect that these two items have something to do with our current internet problems…
Some major fibre optic headaches in the Terrace area the last few days…
Thanks for the info guys–hopefully it picks up a bit for me over night.
