If you want some tips, there is a guide here: [GUIDE] Improving Slow Download Speeds and Fixes for Download Issues
Feel free to try those but there is no need 
Cheers!

It’s the typical problem that we are having for some time now:
Download speed for a new file is in the 1.5-3 MBit range for about 10 minutes, then it goes up to full speed, downloads the file quickly… and with the next file the struggle starts again.

I too see very fluctuating download speeds. Most of time in the range of 1.0 to 3.0 Mbit/s. For a brief second int went up to nearly 50.
I am on Windows 10 (latest), Steam version of the Sim. Region: Austria
The same is true for the new Cessna 207: Download speed jumps between 1.0-3.0 and 50 Mbit/sec, most of time unfortnunatly in the low end of the spectrum → downloading the ~2GB is a pain and takes for ages on a broad band connection where it should take some few minutes.
Edit: currently downloading the updates in the content manager → again fluctuating. What i noticed is that it seems to take some time to gain speed for a particular *.fspatch file, but when a file was downloaded it seems the speed resets to below 3Mbit/sec and then again takes ages to eventually jump in the region of 50Mbit/sec. Very weird…

I’ve been flying around Brussels for the past 15 minutes and it looks great. May be one of my favorite European cities in the sim thus far.
Decided to try the content manager updates first. Downloads are around 1 Mbps with a a single burst (so far) up to 200 Mbps. UK here, Windows 11, store version.
i´ll let you know as soon as i got it downloaded. in like three weeks or so…

In the content manager i get about 2 Mbps.
I wonder how this works, as Microsoft has a lot of data centers nearby one would think this data is all cached.
