Slow download speeds

Hey.

With the recent overwatch update on the 20th and now a small patch for D4 today.

My Battle.net launcher is stuck downloading in KB/s instead of the 25 Mb/s i usually have.

Only the battle.net launcher is affected by this i still download normally on steam and such.

How to fix?

It seems it is entirely on the end of blizzard tho and that this issue has been around for a long time seeing as there are posts like

From many years ago.

Same issue here, Battle.net downloads crawl while Steam and others are fine.

Tried clearing cache, changing server settings, even disabling the firewall, but no real improvement. Looks like it’s a recurring Blizzard-side issue, based on those older posts.

Some say a VPN helps by changing the route, but results vary. It would be nice if Blizzard addressed it again.

It would, But who knows if they will
