Hi guys. I'm currently downloading files from my MEGA cloud to a local drive - and with 99% of files - it downloads at maximum speed. However - some files will for whatever reason only download at 28-70KB/sec - which is awful. I cannot for the life of me understand what's causing this. Has anyone had similar experience?
Think of MEGA as an encrypted website server with many encrypted user accounts with their encrypted storage of files and folders. And think of MEGA as an encrypted website server that has a bunch of people uploading and downloading files and/or folders. MEGA has become an increasingly popular website for uploading and downloading. Which would cause network congestion that causes your speed to go slower. Speed costs money. If you have a free user account on MEGA, then that could explain why the speed of your downloading is slow. Your internet service provider's internet speed will determine your downloading speed as well. Older electronic devices will run slower than newer electronic devices on average, which will affect how fast the downloading speed will go.
Then, it sounds like you're not really wanting to know why you're downloading speed is going slow if you're going to respond like that. I'm telling you how your downloading speed could be affected by MEGA's encrypted server being affected by network congestion, how old electronic devices are, your internet service provider's internet speed, and other things.
"He didn't respond favorably to MY response - he therefore must be full of shit. HURR DURR." So - let's go through it. Think of MEGA as an encrypted website server with many encrypted user accounts with their encrypted storage of files and folders. And think of MEGA as an encrypted website server that has a bunch of people uploading and downloading files and/or folders. You do realize this isn't /r/explainlikeimfive - right? I didn't ask for a description of what MEGA is. MEGA has become an increasingly popular website for uploading and downloading. I didn't ask how popular MEGA is or has become and/or what for. "Which would cause network congestion that causes your speed to go slower. Speed costs money." I'm experiencing genuine physical discomfort from how unbelievably stupid this comment is. You think you're talking to a 70s-something Karen having tech problems? "If you have a free user account on MEGA, then that could explain why the speed of your downloading is slow." Then ASK me whether I have a free user account. "Your internet service provider's internet speed will determine your downloading speed as well." Another completely unwarranted /r/explainlikeimfive styled remark. Out. "Older electronic devices will run slower than newer electronic devices on average, which will affect how fast the downloading speed will go." No shit!? Wait - does that also mean the reason my slices of tomatoes aren't pretty to look at is because I used a piece of flint rock for the job - as opposed to a Monarch Steampunk Dragon Knife?
