Why is the patch/update system -still- broken?

[Valerien]

This worked for me:

Port forward all UDP/TCP ports to 55296-55551.

Port 443 UDP should also be forwarded.

Now this might screw something else up so dont blame me if it does. It gave me a stable d/l speed around 700kb/sec the moment I did it.

this is the answer. spread the word.

its obviously not my isp since all other p2p works
And even with port forwarding (which fixes it somewhat) its still incredibly unstable. (going from 300kb/s to 5kb/s to 50 kb/s every 10 seconds)
Their system is just really poorly designed.
