[QUOTE="harryb2448, post: 1345874, member: 42497"] For xample I have ADSL2+ which can run up to 24Mbps. Because of distance from telephone exchange and old copper wires, get around 9Mbps. When downloading, a good speed is 1MB per second. 1GB = 1000MB = 1000 seconds = about 16-17 minutes per GB. 6GB would take me about 100 minutes, getting close to the two hours. And as RazOrEdge points out, slower if the download from the server is heavy. [/QUOTE]
