Guild Wars 2

Exactly the same story here, Verizon and desktop computer. Patcher starts at 50-60kb/s and drops to 0 in about a minute.

I just did the same update an hour ago at work about 2 miles away on a laptop and it worked flawlessly.

I did the VPN and it brought the speed up to a steady 150-200kb/s.
Interesting note: after I got the launcher to start downloading on the vpn, if i disconnect the vpn while it’s downloading, the download does not stop, it actually went to my full network speed 1.5-3mb/s and held relatively steady with a few dips.

I am on the east coast

I just did Honor of the Waves Explorable Path 1, I have not done this path in a few days, I only got 15 tokens for the completion.
