How to increase download cap nexus mod mangaer

Download speed is not limited by Vortex - at all. Even the non-premium cap isn't. That's all under control of the server. Vortex Version: 0.

Best regards, Weston. My internet is fine and I know my firewall isn't interfering with it in any way. Now I can't even do that. Inspect:: mod failed to downlaod due to a time out sorry cant remember the exact wording and i couldnt copy and past from the Inspect pop up info. I'm getting an odd issue where I have paid for premium download speeds, and get those when I am manually downloading from the nexus server. I've tried letting it through the firewall but I'm unsure of what else could be the problem.

I'm unsure if this is a temporary speed issue, as it's only being affected by downloading through vortex and it's been happening since yesterday. I'm aware that the solution would be to just download manually and install from file, but if there is anything I could try to fix it that would be great.

Once again, sorry if this is the wrong form to report this potential bug. A very painfully slow experience as downloading anything at that speed takes a long time, and I know it's not my internet connection because if I download manually I don't have this problem.

It is important to recognise a Premium membership removes our restrictions on your download speed but does not guarantee you faster downloads.

The download speed cap on Nexus Mods ensures we can budget for and keep our substantial bandwidth bills within an acceptable price range and aren't shocked or utterly destroyed! We use a global CDN to serve our files and our bandwidth is charged by the 95th percentile method. Essentially, that means we're charged based on the speeds we deliver, not the total amount of files that are downloaded. Thus, the faster users download from us, the more our bandwidth bills will cost. By limiting the speeds, we ensure that our expenses remain linked to the number of users who use our site and not the connection speeds of our user base.

As a result, it's far easier to budget our bandwidth bills based on our active user base because more users typically means more ad revenue which means the increased bandwidth costs will be offset by the increased advertising income.

If we didn't cap our downloads we could not budget in the same way. If you're reading this, you've cost us money. To keep this site running we need to pay a very hefty price. From direct expenses, like the servers and bandwidth that are used to serve the page content to you, to more indirect but equally important expenses like our office space, the staff that maintain and improve the site, the hardware we work on, software license fees, HR, payroll, legal fees, insurance and so on and so forth.

All of these expenses need to be accounted for in order to keep these sites up and running well. If you'd like a full breakdown of what Nexus Mods needs money for, we've dedicated an entire page of the site to an infographic that puts it all in to easy to read data points.

You can see that page here. In this age of Adblockers, we believe that the users who financially support the site should be rewarded for their help. Whether by directly donating towards the site by buying Premium Memberships or simply by choosing to not use an Adblocker while browsing the site, these users are the ones who help to keep the site up and fully operational.

Without them, Nexus Mods would simply cease to exist. We believe the help they provide, consciously or unconsciously, should be incentivised and rewarded.
