I have been trying to dowload Open Office for more than four hours now and
it still is not complete. I am on XP Home and would like to know how long
this
should take
Depending on the server or mirror you are downloading from
AND the Internet traffic between there and you
AND how far away you are from that server
AND the type of connection and speed you have
you see my point
there are a lot of factors
I have Broadband with 5 meg max download speed
and sometimes it takes 15 to 20 minutes, while others
can take 2-4 hours. It all depends on how many people
are trying to download files from the same server/connection,
plus the Internet traffic.
To be honest. At 5 meg speed for download, I have 5 times the
bandwidth than many businesses in my area with 50 or more
people, plus two colleges in my area.
Try a bandwidth test site to see what you are actually
getting for download speeds, and do it for several big
cities across you part of the country or the world.
There are a lot of factors.
Just try again
plus use a download manager if you have dialup and
sometimes even if you use broadband.
