Summary
Despite having a 2.5 Gig internet connection—with full speeds working fine across my system—downloading assets from FAB has become painfully slow. This problem started about a week ago and has made it extremely difficult to use Unreal Engine for environment creation.
For example, downloading the Hornbeam Forest asset takes 10–15 minutes, even though my internet is fast. My system is hardwired, and I’ve tested other applications to confirm that my connection is working properly.
Has anyone found a solution or experienced something similar?
