Orbx PNW servers a disaster

Recommended Posts

19 minutese would be great. I'm now over 5 hours with a very fast cable connection. Anybody else showing 19 minutes?
19 minutes for 4.2GB?Maybe, but my neighbour has a BMW SUV and I have a 2001 Subaru. All things are not equal even if we wish them to be so. 19 minutes is top end. I think very few will be that lucky. I don't mind a few hours as long as it doesn't get silly. But again, this thing has been on the market for a heartbeat. Give it time to breathe.

So suggestion: Wait 10-15 minutes then try again.And those people downloading it in less than 30 minutes - gee, I wish I had their internet connection :(
Pausing and then un-pausing will often cause the ip window to open wider, and will often cause/find a different route across the internet. My #%@## are all tongue-in-cheek, John. You have the greatest products, and I have every confidence that tomorrow morning - I, along with (hopefully?) thousands of others, will be enjoying the PNW in the favourite aeroplane! Congratulations on the release,and Many Thanks!Best Wishes,

No worries Paul, tongue in cheek is cool.19 minutes would be a dream come true, but for me 256k/sec is fantastic, not a disaster, LOL.It will sort itself out, it always does. Thanks for being patient everyone :)


Cheers,

Everyone with a failed download or the likes coming from the CDN, please try to reenage your download because the file has just been loaded into an additional 112 nodes and allowed a bigger cache to cope for the pressure.

Getting a steady 200 - 300 now, but Canada just won 3-2 against Slovakia so the boss says we have to go to bed, uh, ... to celebrate....... :(

PJ, go to the flight sim store home and there should be an option to open a support ticket there.

Thanks, Bob. I just loaded "FlashGet3" the download manager, and it's now pulling between 200 and 300 again, so I'll be patient . It's a roller coaster, isn't it. It's like waiting for Christmas morning only to discover you're looking at the wrong page in the calender!

Yep, to anyone who's been struggling with it, I had a bad time downloading overnight too. Tried it again this morning, and it really zinged. Got the whole package in about an hour. So the pipe seems to have opened significantly now.

I'm zinging along at 30k :( Think I'll try again or give it a day or two! Shame to have to wait even after a pre-pay!Edit* Thanks for the heads up Bill I quit my previous download attempt and reconnected and your right looks like they got the kink out of the hose pulling a steady 1.8mb now 33minutesvs 1 day and 8+hours
