Very low Steam download speed
Hi! I setup bazzite only a few days ago so I'm a bit new to the workflow and such but here's what I've done to try & fix so far + other probably important info
- speedtest.net & downloading anything with discover confirms that I can get about 230mbps down
- I've tried about 15 different download servers
- @nClientDownloadEnableHTTP2PlatformLinux 0 & @fDownloadRateImprovementToAddAnotherConnection 1.0 were already in steam_dev.cfg by default, but I have also tried without them to no luck
- I'm running wifi with a simplecom nw611ac usb adapter
- router is a netgear r7000 running xwrt-vortex/merlinwrt firmware with 1.1.1.1 dns setup & wpa2

*my btrfs partition is a 250gb nvme + 1tb nvme in raid single
every so often I have been getting short bursts of upto 100mbps but never much over that
new zealand and bolivia are giving me around 115mbps now so it's possible the australian steam servers have just trashed themselves entirely? I've got no clue what is even going on with it because sydney used to give me at the very least 100mbps on windows
returning back to any australian server results in absolutely garbage speed so it definitely could be
it's really strange that every download server I tried previously was also giving single digit megabits but now all the international ones I'm trying are around 100
yeah and now new zealand is giving me 4mbps again so something is definitely up
