OK, I am having the slow patch download problem.... I am kinda confused with reading this post..

Are people able to dload patchs from a 3rd party and manually install them, or are they talking about the client?

I am currently patching the 177mb one through the loader, and its crawling. 45min and only 17 percent. Kinda ridiculous.

I just spent a good 36 hours downloading this only to have the 7.8G file be corrupted. I think i'll pass on this game. Can't even get beta downloading right. I'll play it for free in 6 months like everyone else.

*edit* Thought I would give the torrent a try. DL'ing at a whopping 10k/sec.

Fullspeed

2 GB Files

My Brother and i both have beta keys, and both downloaded the startrekonilne downloader from this siite, my download speed bounced constantly in a range between 122kb/s up to 600kb/s, though am capable of downloading files at 2.8Mb/s, not sure how long mine took, i was out most of the day at the mall picking up our beta keys and stuff, my brother has been trying to download for about 3 or 4 days on and off and can't get a download speed from the downloader any faster than 7kb/s, he has DSL, and Linksys WRT54G router and is connected via a cat5e ethernet cable, could use some hints on speeding him up so he can play by at latest tomorrow morning.

THANKS,
