Extremely weird problem with downloading speeds

Hi all, here is the problem, when I use megaupload to download files, I have noticed that every file that I download is a one link individual file will download at crawling speeds and every part of a complete file I download will download at full speed, example a huge 10gb file was split into 10 1gb links, in this case I will download a full speed and if there was a 330MB file single link then I will download at crawling speeds.
I can provide sufficient screenshots to prove this as I have tested and experimented with many many many different files including changing the http link to ip etc.
Yes I am on megaupload premium
Does anyone know what is the problem?
Here is some example screenshot of what I mean
Screenshot below shows the regular speed that I usually download at around this time of day, yes I know my internet isnt very fast

Screenshot below shows the crawling speeds I get when I download whole files that arent split.

This is no coincidence, I have tried with HUNDREDS of files and they ALL follow this exact same pattern regardless of what forum site or wherever I got my links from. Yes every link you see are Megaupload links and every file I tested this with are megaupload links
VERY bizarre problem I am absolutely mind wrecked over this.
Answer #1
Try Downloading a single file only once at a Time, If still happen, then restart the download by pasting the link into browser or Flashget whatever method you use, If you still exprience this problem.. try once with idm.

I have been having some really wacky problems with MU lately too. I try to download and it goes from 2.0 MB/s to 60 KB/s, and sometimes stops dl’ing.
I just downloaded one tv show episode 175 MB and right when I clicked it to start it was already at 170 MB downloaded, and I’m only a free user. Don’t even ask me how the heck that happened or is even technically possible, but I swear on anything that it did happen. I was astonished and dumbfounded. MU must be having some sort of technical issues. At least for me they are. Every other file host is working fine and I’m getting a good 2.0 – 1 MB/s with fileserve, no broken downloads.

I think I have solved this problem, I took a look at my download history over the past few months and realized tall the slow downloads have one thing in common, they were all video files with the extension of .avi or .mkv whilist all the fast downloads were .rar or .html etc and then I realized my ISP has been filtering the video files limiting the speeds of video files I think.
This was proven by me going into my MU account finding a .avi file and testing it, it indeed was downloading super slow but when I change the file extension to .rar instead, the SAME file just extension changed I was getting full download speeds.

Wow, you know I bet that is what is happening with me come to think of it. I guess that’s a way they are trying to cut down on piracy?
Answer #5
Yeah, not only that but they probably can see that most people who are downloading large files and using a lot of bandwidth are downloading video files which is probably why they filtered them.
