I assume anyways. Since gloating about patch skills would be silly.
Currently the only option is to forward ports, which unless we know what router people are using we cannot help with because of the differant firmware differant routers have.

This option however is poor because some people wont have access to the router, like people who live in University accomodation so cannot forward the ports needed to get remote connections.

Either SE need to change the ports used to a range that people would have open or they need to offer a direct download option, both would prevent this problem of slow downloads.
