No other activity on my 40mbit network (speedtested multiple ways and working fine.)

Had to reset the GW2 launcher because of something else after downloading GW2 to 50% at around 3-4MB/s, now getting slower and inconsistent speeds ranging from 10KB/s to 1MB/s from this address:
gw2.exe —
a82-96-58-57.deploy.akamaitechnologies.com, IP: 82.96.58.57

My location & ISP: Norway, Romm AS

Hi Echo – I’m a little confused by the IP addressed you listed as this isn’t a GW2 IP address. It’s possible your connection might be throttled if you’re using quite a bit of bandwidth, but this doesn’t look like anything on our end should cause this problem for you.
