I doubt that's the case but you wouldn't happen to be running a 802.11n Wireless-N on Comcast ?

I had that issue a while back and there is a problem there that is however very easy to fix...

do tell....

I am not using comcast's router, i bought my own and its literally only downloading content from nintendo that has any issues.


There is a bug on comcast network that mainly affects downloads ( upload is fine).

Check what router you have and then check this if you have the affected router :

Holy interesting as that would effect only downloading content and not the other internet traffic. See people this is real help here... not just blanket statements like "its your wifi".

I'll check this when I get home. thx!

One thing to note though is I've seen no negative download issues on my wifi connected PC. But I'll try this either way as its an easy test.

btw, my router is this one.... http://www.bestbuy.com/site/NETGEAR+-+RangeMax+Dual-Band+Wireless-N+Router+with+4+Ethernet+Ports/1208844.p?id=1218234872989&skuId=1208844

I should add to this discussion, because streaming Netflix in HD only means that you are streaming up to 3 MB a second for that kind of streaming on Netflix......so maybe you where downloading the game at around 3 MB or so a second.

 Fast web browser also doesn't mean that much speed.

Good luck optimizing your connection with help from Ail. I hope it works fast afterwards.
