The US had DNS server problems around a month ago, but while DNS works now, Internet speeds come and go.
You might use https://www.speedtest.net/ to check your upload and download speeds.
The Profantasy servers are pretty good as a rule, with the exceptions of these rare issues mentioned by Jim, so it's more likely to be traffic or broadband issues if no one else is having the same problem at the same time.
I use IDM. Its free for the first 30 days, and actually well worth the money if you decide to buy it. The only demands it ever makes is a popup asking permission to update to the latest version every now and then.
I've lost count of all the things I wouldn't have been able to download without it's help - including most of the PF downloads. The best bit is the ability to resume an interrupted download.
Usually blazing fast for me. The downloads are hosted using Amazon's storage services, so there should be plenty of available capacity for the hosting server/datacenter. Testing right now, and it gives me a decent 32MB/s (= 256 Mbit/sec)
My ISP is now a major pain... so I'll have to get this.
It is definatelly helping. Thanks @Loopysue !
