Please report download speeds on the new UK2 download server, vs UK1, also mention your location and maximum line speed
 
For parity you might suggest using a common download link.

Abysmal in US downloading GPU-Z.

UK1 - Full speed (>1 second)
UK2 - Average 300kbs, max 640kbs
 
Did with drivers AMD, TPU 1 UK is about 60 MB/s compared to only 14.5 ish on TPU 2.

Based in the UK using 1Gb connection.
 
Bump, anyone else?
 
Nvidia Geforce Drivers;

UK1 - 25MB
UK2 - 18/19MB

I´am in Portugal 250 connection
 
Bump .. cmon people .. I need more data so I can show the UK2 people that something is wrong with their networking setup
 
160 Mbps on fast.com, Poland (should be around 900 but ISP is ghosting me since I pointed out the issue last week)

Tested downloading latest Nvidia drivers
File name: 528.24-desktop-win10-win11-64bit-international-dch-whql.exe
File size: 813.4 MB

UK1:
1min 52sec to download
1:25
1:35
1:40

UK2:
2:02
1:52
1:55
1:41
 
UK2, 2gb : peak rate
1675765527695.png
average 10-11

UK1, same file : peak rate
1675765649539.png
average 10-11 too


my speedtest average :
1675765914089.png

location: Switzerland ofc
 
Edited.....

My vpn treated them the same. No definitive numbers, but will test more in about 9 hours

New Zealand on fiber 2Gb/2Gb
AMD Radeon Drivers 22.11.2
UK1 11.56MB/s
UK2 10.43MB/s
 
99% load with some help. visibly I could do for only 33 to 50% with 500 Mbps in the balkans.
Full saturation cannot be expected on my end as it is 1:50 or similar sharing ratio

100mb fiber. London, UK (but connection seems to max out between 70-87mb/s depending on the time of day. I think this area tends to max out at 85mb...)

Speed seems fine for me on UK2...
 
Download speed: constant 38 Mbps.
Maximum line speed: 38 Mbps.
Location: in the middle of nowhere, I mean, Midlands, UK.
 
Could you perhaps provide us w/ a static download link of a large-ish (1GiB) test-file?
I have a few personal vpses as well as access to a few other servers im responsible for, I could use those to test - and something static thats like, wgettable would be far easier
 
I tried download the q2rtx-1.6.0-windows.exe on my ip at UK2.net

UK1 up to 29.1 MB/s
UK2 up to 195KB/s

UK 2 took longer to ramp up the speed. Not sure if the server config is the same as UK 1, but TCP is certainly being "more cautious".
