OK. So I took the wife out to dinner at McDonalds - yeah, I'm a big spender, LOL.

I used their wifi. Their ISP is AT&T. To keep things consistant I attempted to download the exact same file as I have been experimenting with thus far. Guess what? NO CHANGE!

I was getting the exact same download speed on their ISP as on Comcast from my account downloads.

So, what do we have so far? Lets see:

1: I have tried 3 different browsers, having cleared my cache and history and cookies and all that crap. NO CHANGE. The same 150 kbps download speeds

2: I downloaded yesterday morning - July 4th - and my download speeds were anywhere from 22 to 30 Mbps.

3: Today at around 11 AM I tried and things were back to a snail's pace.

4: 3DArena sent me a download link to the same file which she had placed into her locker for me and it download from there in 30 seconds whereas from my purchased items it takes anywhere from 3 to 6 minutes to download.

5: I just tried downloading the same file from my Rendo account using a totally different ISP and it was just as slow as Comcast.

Now, to be fair, I should try more ISPs but I don't have access to more at this time. I will have to find out who else around here has free open wifi.

BUT, to ME everything is looking more like an issue with Rendo's server not being able to keep up with the demand.
