It seems that you're using an outdated browser. Some things may not work as they should (or don't work at all).
We suggest you upgrade newer and better browser like: Chrome, Firefox, Internet Explorer or Opera

THANK YOU VERY MUCH Joe999, TinyE, and Paladin181.

THAT WORKED.

See two screenshots. First screenshot is using the browser alone, and once again you can see the speed is about 3.5MB/s.

The second is using DownThemAll, and the SAME FILE (Sid Meier's Priates) from the SAME SITE (gog) at about the same time (I started one, took a screenshot, started the other, took a screenshot) within seconds/minutes of each other.

Browser download speed.... about 3.5MB/s

DownThemAll speed.... over 12MB/s.

HUGE DIFFERENCE.

The issue is settled.

Kleetus: Not possible with a 100Mbps connection (or a 125Mb/s).
You are being obtuse or belligerent then, because I've got a screenshot SHOWING ME GETTING OVER 20MB/s at Steam. Posted above.

I ALWAYS GET OVER 20 MB/s at Steam.

I've already proven the point.

Go Away.

And Stay Away.

No wonder yourr rep is negative whatthefuckever.

Well deserved.

Then you don't have a 125Mb/s, not possible.

You would need a 200 Mb/s connection at a minimum to achieve that.

All you've proven is that you can't use a computer.

My last reply you since it's obvious you're incapable of observation.

My ISP bill and Comcast's Internet plans, showing I'm paying for 100Mbs (I thought it was 125, my bad).

A speed test screenshot above PROVING I'm getting 110Mbs.

And a screen shot above PROVING I get over 20MB/s at Steam.

It seems you're the one that knows nothing about using a computer.

Now please go crawl back under the rock you came out from.

I don't know how he can scream bullshit at you and spam my account at the same time. Impressive.

You cannot have both, not possible.

And as I've stated, you would need 200 Mb/s to achieve 20 MB/s.

There are 8 bits to a byte, plus you never get the full speed, so technically and mathematically it's not possible.

I'm not the one asking for help and having issues, so it seems I can use one better than you.

But as you're so computer literate, please explain how you can get more than the maximum from your connection?

Compression. Some clients can send you data that's compressed on the fly, so a 100MB file can be transmitted in 1 second, meaning 100MB/s transfer rate, even though your line is only 100Mb/s.
Yes, the actual data being transferred is less than 100MB, but it does also depend on how it's reported.

JMich: but it does also depend on how it's reported.
That was one of the reasons why I suggested a proper speed test and using different browsers to isolate an issue, if any.
