I have problems downloading updates from App Store, too. Massively slow downloads, and due to this, it restarts almost every half of the way.

Not the case for sure!! I have two homes , one with Unifi VIP5 and one with Times basic place, Unifi update in Apps Store slow like Sh*t while times flying like rocket , it must be Unifi problem! But they use all kinds of excuses!!

Guyz,

I solve this problem buy downloading Hotspot Shield VPN, connect to that vpn then just download an update or any software for apps store without any problems wink.gif

I found out that sometimes throughout the day this problem is gone, so I grab the chance to update the apps. I know this is not the solution, but so far this is my best take.

based on this ongoing THREAD, here are a few things you guys can do for the time being while they 'investigate'

1. change your DNS (8.8.8.8 or any other)
2. use VPN
3. use mobile data (3G or 4G/LTE)
4. use other ISP (Maxis Fibre, YES 4G, etc)
5. download during these times; 3am-10am and 3pm-6pm. these are the time slots that some forumers and i have determined to have normal speeds, especially the morning window.

note that sometimes downloading is a lot faster than updating, and vice versa. so if the update is slow, you guys may try deleting the app and downloading from scratch again. if you guys have any other suggestion or want to report/update your situation, i suggest posting in this THREAD as some post may help you guys and your posts in that thread can generate enough attention for other users.

yes. i noticed my updates and downloads were at normal speed especially in the mornings. tested on few updates already. i called tm once again and they said they are still working on it.

guess this will be the temporary solution for the moment..

I think when the Americans wake up, Apple servers become slow. No?

This problem started recurring for me especially with Unifi.

App store downloads still ok using TIME's network.

Anyone else facing this issue?

Didn't TM say their service is down? Posted on lowyat.net too. Access to most NA servers and websites are either too slow or inaccessible.

Server in SG doesn't mean you're always connected to the servers I SG. Sometimes you get switched out to some other servers. Time piggybacking TM's fiberwires? No right? I'm not too sure.. All I know it's a TM issue. I play on SG servers on csgo and I'm getting 500-800ping lol
