Hello! I have a problem with GOG Galaxy. Download speed is very low (1.1 MB\sec). I can't download my purchased games because of it. When I start downloading game - whole internet speed dropping down (even in browser). I have this issue only with GOG and speed from other stores and torrents is totally fine! Because of that it's easier to me to download my games that I bought in GOG from torrent or other sources rather from the store, unfortunately for me. I've noticed that many people have similar problem, but I can't find a solution. Again, all speedtests is normal and only GOG (on my PC) has this issue, but it's not always was that way. How can I solve this problem?

Hi Olthander.

Please run this internet speed test
https://www.speedtest.net/
so that you can be certain of your maximum-minimum downloading speeds and let me know.
Don't forget to shut down any bandwidth consuming processes while testing.

Cheers.

So what kind of download speeds are you getting elsewhere? What is the theoretical maximum of your internet connection?

1.1 MBytes/sec sounds like what you'd get on a 10Mbit/s internet connection, so I presume your internet is faster than 10Mbit/s?

Just trying to make sure you are not mixing up Mbytes and Mbits, like thinking you are getting only 1.1Mbit/s download speed.
