Basically,
I recently bought Call Of Duty 4 of 'Direct 2 Drive' as it was on a discount, "brilliant site by the way".
After I successfully bought the game and had it setup, it made me confident to buy a second game from there.
When you buy a game it takes you to your download manager screen which is some software you use to download all of your products from the site. I get around 200kbps and whats annoying me is,
At the top of the screen obove the details of the current download is a bar type graph. It works simply by, the higher the reading, the more kps you are getting. It is constantly moving across and so you can track your internet average speeds for about the past minute until new readings are taken and the readings are lost.
It an easy system to use, but recently the bars have been going up and down like pyramids. Around every 3-4 seconds the bar will move up, reach around 200kbps and then suddenly slope down again back down to 0kbps. It will stay at 0 for about 2 seconds then repeat the process again. This is annoyign as I want my game downloaded as fast as possible.
At night I leave it on usually as it will stay at 200kbps for the whole night and so I will wake up to a new game.
How can I stop this from happening, when I bought cod4 I simply got a constant reading of 200 at night and around 80-120 in the day (kbps). Why now is this stupid thing happening.
Sorry if you dont understand, Im trying to get a screen shot but not sure how to do so.
Many kind regards and thanks for reading![]()

Have you contacted the website that provides support for this application? It might be on their end, and nothing to do with your computer, internet connection, or ISP.
