Why don’t you just let us download it online instead of forcing this crap installer/launcher on us. Only getting 1.5m down on a 90g file. Taking days instead of the hour or so that it should. That or provide an actual fix for it. Have tried VPN, no malware at all on here and the settings are set to unlimited. So I’ve bought 2 additional programs to try and fix it aside from this game that I can’t play anytime you decide to update it.

Still didn’t fix mine 
Denver, CO - USA. I’m staring at a 1.9 Mbps download speed - exactly the same speed I got 4 days ago when downloading the last unreasonably large 60+GB ‘patch’ (read whole friggen game reinstall) This is why no one likes you Blizzard - Steam updates games just fine with my exact setup. All other downloads for any other reason except for you Blizzard work fine and I see speeds in the 15-20Mbps range. If you’re going to trap good games like COD behind your walled garden at least invest in your network. Call your colocation provider and have them add bandwidth, Blizzard. This is unacceptable.

Also, just remembering paying $60 for this game. Fix your update distribution channels Blizzard. I paid you, please deliver usable service.

This only helped me for a couple of hours I AM BACK AT 140 KB…I am losing the will with this seriously
It would seem that the closer i get to the finish the slower the download speed is. i have been updating for 3 freaking days and with 30GB remaining, the speed is dropping to 50Bs not even KBs… are you Kidding me?

I was having this issue as well until I noticed that my wireless adapter was connecting to my network over 2.4GHz band. I went into Device Manager, went into the properties for my network adapter, and under Advanced I set the “Preferred Band” from auto to 5GHz. After I changed I went from 400KB/s to 15+MB/s.
Hope this helps more of you!

That TotalAV Webshield is the culprit. So much for buying protection. For months, I was struggling and with disabling Webshield, I am cranking 40MB/s from 700k/s

EVERYONE THIS IS THE FIX IT
I DID THIS AND NOW IM AT 100 MBs
Vpn worked for me as well
•Router Brand: TP-LINK
•Router Model : AC1200 version 2.0
•If you have QoS or SIP ALG settings on your router, what is it set to? Does changing these setting affect the download speed? No
•If you bypass your router completely does it resolve the problem?
No bypasss
finially vpn works : protonvpn
Yeah I’m having the same issue with COD:MW and Warzone, I’m getting MAX 20 MB/s but I have 460 Mbps down which is 57 MB/s and I have zero issues with Steam but the moment I use battle.net it’s like my download is being capped and I know my router n everything is fine… I have no issues downloading anywhere else it’s only Battle.net so has to be something with their servers or data center or something.

Well seems I’m the odd one out with this problem, no malware. Updated the routers driver, Literally bought Nord VPN to try and fix this (There’s a sale for like 9 more days btw) Still didn’t help at all.
Spent all day downloading 100 Gb’s with a 2 to 5 Mbs, so It wont be a problem in a bit, but id like to not have to wait forever for an update next time, maybe?

THANK YOU!!! Once I deactivated I got 28MB/s vs. >1MB/s
Installed for the new release, going on 4 days, says I have another 103 GB left at 650KB/s, on a FTTP connection. Really? Steam can download a 20GB game in under an hour. I have been playing CoD since 2003 but I think this is the last one I will buy from you guys.
