Actually, something is up anyways. 10 megabytes a second = 600 megabytes a minute = 36000 megabytes an hour. You'd have downloaded more than half the game in the first hour even at 10 MB per second. At 25 megabytes per second it wouldn't have even taken an hour.
On the other hand, 25 megabits a second would take about 6 hours, much closer to what you experienced.
it might have downloaded slower cause i was playing video games
Let's start off with your ISP connection. What do you have (fiber, cable, DSL, business Ethernet, etc.) and how fast does the ISP say it should run?

My ping is10 ms, download speed is 4.10, but I ecall it being at least 6 might be because there is a storm and upload speed is 3.85, I use optimium online.
ah so thats what it was but that still doesnt explain why my xbox downloads faster then steam, my wifi adapter on my computer can withastand 100 megabits a second.
megabit vs megabyte. MB/s vs Mb/s You still dont get it.
You can have a 100Mb connection and download at approx 10MB/s. To download at 100MB/s you need something approximately 10 times faster.
oh yea meant to put 100 megabyte*
The wifi adaptor may be able to handle that speed, but that doesn't mean the ISP is PROVIDING that speed.
That's why people keep saying do speedtests and show them.
