I am currently downloading Future Soldier in Steam but the download speed is just terrible. It is like 50 KBps roughly.
I have a 2 Mbps connection and I easily get 200~250 KBps download speed in torrents and other downloads.

Why on earth is Steam download so slow? There is also very limited option to customize the download potential.

Please help me.

This is my first steam download

With my experience steam is slow in general i never have any luck downloading over 70kbps

70 kbps or 70 KBps

70 KBps

What's your actual speed?

100 MBps with comcast

store.steampowered.com/stats/content/
Depends on location as well..I get max speed all the time.

Where are you from?

You have something wrong with your network or service. Same reason on your utorrent thread. I think you should contact your ISP.
