Nine hours, fifty four minutes left.
Yes, one day i will successfully download Day of defeat without WinME crashing on me, or my crappy ISP dying.
One day. Really. I swear.
Couldn't have just kept it TFC, huh.

Took me 2 and a half on my University network. I was kinda disappointed, but it was certainly well worth the wait.

OSU must have a lousy LAN. Up here in the cheese state, it took me about 2 min to DL it from the UK. For such a big school, your connection problems seem weird.

Not only your crappy Isp but if you get a slow speed from wherever your getting it from then your really screwed. It pays to shop around for your download. I always check the speed and if its below normal I move on to another site.
Can you download from the library or something that may have a better connection?
Mumble something about a important school project. |

I dunno, of the sites that ACTUALLY worked, the uk site was the fastest. And Actually OSU has one of the fastest and largest university networks in the country, thank you very much . It probably didn't help that I was downloading it in the middle of the day

Part one: 4 hours, 34 minutes.
10 minute pause.
Part two: 5 hours, 19 minutes.
4 minute installation time.
Finally downloading DoD: Priceless.
Something like that.
