    I seem to be getting only up to 100KB/s? I read that if you open certain ports you will download faster, but I dont know how to :-(

    Let me just interupt your complaining by saying that it is worth it.;)
    The new update is kinda nice!
    I couldn't run Dry Rock Island, but now I can!:D

    But yeah, it took half a day to download...
    And it didn't actually update the game (it installed some stuff on the C drive, but my game is in the D drive).

    Just make sure your computer doesn't go on stand-by, go to work and let it download the update... And then get disappointed if it still hasn't completly downloaded everything when you get home and let it run trough the night... Yeah, the download was a nightmare, but as I said, it's worth it.

    Took me only about 20 min to download folder, then about 15 min or so to download the patch. (guess servers aren't overloaded anymore)

    It really depends on your router, but for starters try visiting your default gateway in your browser (usually 192.168.1.1).

    Find it by opening cmd.exe, type in ipconfig, and find the number labelled Default Gateway.

    If it asks for a password and your router is cable/DSL/fiber company provided, there's a good chance the username and password will be on a sticker on the router. If not or that doesn't work, try the defaults (can be found for your model router online, just Google "<MY ROUTER> default password" or ask the person who set up the router.

    Poke around, usually port forwarding will be under a menu called Applications and Gaming or something similar. (NOTE: Not all routers support port forwarding)

    If you find it, forward the ports to your IPV4 address, which once again can be found using ipconfig in cmd.exe. (NOTE: Your IPV4 address may change from time to time, if your forwarded ports stop working right this is the first thing to check.)

    So, something like

    Forward from port 8700 to 8700, to 192.168.1.8
    Forward from port 4433 to 4433, to 192.168.1.8

    for example.

    If you could get us the make and model of your router we may be able to help you more.

    God damn. You are either messing with us or you have one shitty life. Suicidal, one-armed, ice-infested house, dead father, and a malnourished dog. I think you may need to seek some help rather than speaking on an online forum.

    Even if that is true, I have typed all of this post with my single LEFT hand. It is not a hard thing to do.

    Seriously, I type one-handed a bit as well. I also type horribly on my phone, but I don't just post without checking the spelling every time.
