Download failed. The file wasn't properly sent by the server

Postby Eukanuba » 29 Sep 2012, 18:46

I can't download today's update (29th Sept) and I get the above error. Is this a known problem or is it something at my end? I've never had problems with updates before. Can I manually download the update instead?

It's probably a router on your way (you should do a tracert faforever.com), and yes you can download manually.

It's working fine now. Just for future reference, what's the address for a manual download?

When I was having problems yesterday I tried to download from the FAF front page and I got a similar error. I suspect that your hosting server was unavailable for an hour or so.
