ok - when I set both values to the same limit then its works for me (latest updates and pre-release) for a “normal” update

I have this problem as well - for me it’s exclusive to Windows 11. With Windows 10, bandwidth limiting works as expected.

Windows 11: input 4000 KB/s, expected download speed = 4MB/s;
get 40MB/s (if not higher) in exchange.

Windows 10: Input 4000 KB//s, expected download speed = 4MB/s, get 4MB/s and not faster.

From Experience, I can say it takes up to 1-3 minutes until it goes to the limit. Thought by myself it doesn’t work until I just waited some time and now its at my limit.

If that doesn’t help you I think its a bug

Still an issue, seems like such an easy fix, why isn’t there anything about this? Any limit I try to set to download the latest cod patch, the downloader ignores it and uses my full bandwidth. It’s not even a problem of my internet, I can download with 30MB/s, but the client hogs the whole bandwidth making the internet slow for everyone on the same network.

Its nice to see the devs just don’t read the forums. This has been an ongoing issue for months.

Add me to the list of people having this issue. Used to work but no longer does.

As the person stated above me - add me to the list of people having issues as well. This has been going on for months and the devs haven’t even acknowledged the problem yet.

Same. Initial download and it doesn’t work, what a lame “feature”. Please fix.

Same problem. This gigantic COD download is extremely disruptive to everyone else in the house.

Same issue here. Have a feeling they won’t fix this for months though. Super annoying.
