    Exclamation Downloads...

    I've been trying to download runes of magic for like ages, however the download is like 5 hours and it takes ages...
    I am on a cable pc is there any way of increasing the download speed like putting the pc into a low power state or any downloads that may help.


    thanks

    Orbit is a downloadmanager.
    It simply holds all data of the download etc and you can resume or pauze the downloads when you'd like to.
    Nothing like winrar at all.

    @the speed thing:
    Either:
    a) Upgrade your internet plan.
    b) Buy the server a better line (meaning: nothing you can do about it)
    c) Wait.

    @low power mode:
    This will cancel your download, in this mode the computer won't receive any data from the router. If you don't believe it take a 20mb file and while it is downloading, put your pc in low power mode. You'll see it has stopped and without a download manager it won't go any further.

    However, don't always use download manager to download your files... why?
    There is a chance the downloadfile might become corrupt and you'll have to redownload the file.

    I should update this but all my effort went into writing this lousy excuse.
