Downloads fast at first. But Then gets slow. Any ideas? Internet Connection is good and rolling well. I downloaded a bit of pre patch data also.

Q u o t e:
The part that loaded fast is what you downloaded from the pre-patches. Now you're just downloading the rest of it.

This is correct.

Q u o t e:
How do you make sure the background downloader is running? I thought mine had been on, but I had to start the patch from the very start today, and it is still downloading.

You can find more information about the background downloader here: http://forums.worldofwarcraft.com/thread.html?topicId=15671262129&sid=1

Q u o t e:
I dunno, it took me the better part of an hour to download 26MB. That's not right. Something is definitely slow and it ain't my connection. I got all the ports needed forwarded to my computer, had all the pre-patch data, and my software firewall allows the Blizzard Downloader.

That's a concern better directed to the Technical Support forum.
