    RTL+ RTL+ Download speed

    The download speed display for RTL+ is incorrect. My maximum speed of my line is 5.00 Mb/s. So it can't be right

    There are several other modules with inaccurate download speed information. I am not sure why that is.

    I guess if you are just sitting next to the screen waiting for the download to finish, the ETA is not accurate. And that's only for the ones showing the time

    But if you put stuff in the queue, click download and walk away, it's just a minor cosmetic issue that is inconsequential.

        We didn't notice much difference in download speed. Perhaps you can try again at another time.

          Check out the speed in Streamfab and the display in my router here.
          The speed at which Streamfab actually loads should be between 4.00 - 5.00 MB/s.

          I think that the display in the RTL+ module is always twice as high as the actual one. I emphasize again that my connection cannot do more than a maximum of 5.60-6.00 Mbits. Amazon always charges around 4.00 Mbits for me. But it's just a display error, the actually downloading and processing is correct.

            Only RTL+ is affected! For all other modules the display is correct!

              If your ISP only allows you 5 Mbits/second that is a pretty sorry ISP. So much for the stories we hear here in the US that Europe has outrageously fast Internet. Based on your Online-Monitor display (on the left), you are averaging about 40 Mbits/second download. That's still pretty poor. Looking at your StreamFab Fast & Furious display (on the right), you are getting 5.14 MBytes/second which works out to roughly 40 Mbits/second. So they match. You are obviously mistaken and have a 5 MBytes/second account with your ISP. One Byte (Capital B) = 8 bits (small b).
              There is nothing wrong with your connect. Unfortunately you are getting what you pay for.

                Cats4U ​ I would get more from my provider if I paid more. I'm just talking about Germany now, there's still a lot to do with fiber optic expansion. My home is now also being expanded with fiberglass. The 5G expansion in Germany still has a lot to do.

                Now to Stream Fab. I know it's hard to see in the photo. It says 9.14 on the display, not 5.14 :-)​

                  Sorry about that. The photo attachments on this forum suck (usually too small) and it doesn't help that I have cataracts that aren't ripe enough to replace surgically yet.

                    :-) But do you agree with me that the ad is incorrect? I don't want you to think I'm crazy with my German RTL+ problems :-)

                        OK, you're right. I just wanted the developers to know.
                        They can only fix what they know.

                        You can write it in your bug tracker if you like :-)​
