Hi, guys,

Not sure where to put my question as there is no MBP 13 non-TB topic here.

So i just bought my first Mac yesterday and it's a 2017 model with 13" non touch bar (256GB).

This morning, i was so excited to unbox it and go through all the initial setup with apple id, icloud setting and finally went into the desktop.
First thing i need to make sure the Filevault and Firewall are both turned on.


Next thing go to app store and check any update and HERE is the PROBLEM i faced.

I'm using both Unifi Advance with 50mbps plan (old home) and Streamyx 4mbps (new home) but the download speed from both resulting in ridiculously slow rate as per pic shown



The update is for the Mac OS Sierra latest version.

As this is my first MAC, so there are lots for me to learn now.

Anyone can please guide/help me on this problem?

Thanks in advance

Where's the speed?
Try use speedtest.net with your mac.

my neck pain.....still new to imac is it? no paint to retate pics?

try change the DNS to google DNS.

but sometime is TM capped the speed... try download youtube movie see see how it goes.

Use a download accelerator.

Will try to test it tonight, but loading youtube seems no problem on 1080p on unifi and 720p on streamyx
I can load smoothly

Haha.. sorry cause using mobile phone to post the topic

You mean 8.8.8.8 ?

As for youtube, i replied above

Does it help?

changing DNS settings doesn't change download speed, you're still downloading from the same host.

Strangely that last night back home, the speed just became normal o.O

But the content download unable to get verified few times and redownload like 3 times >.<

Don't worry about it, the download speed from the App Store fluctuates a lot especially when you are using Unifi. Just search through the forum here and you will find multiple threads on slow download speeds from the App Store.

It isn't anything wrong with your internet line or your hardware. Just the connection between where the App Store is hosted (I believe the closest is Singapore for us) and TM.

It works fine with other providers like TIME.

Thanks bro

At least i feel relieve a bit now and just done all update till latest version.
