What do you mean by "same way"? I don't download using wifi, only through my 
ethernet connection.
My larger downloads are mostly games. As you probably know, most games are 
pretty darn huge any more (whatever happened to DVD's, LOL?), so it takes a 
good while to DL one. They're legit games, not pirated hack jobs from one of 
those sites.
What I don't understand is that I used to get 100+ Mbps downloads and was 
still able to use my wifi devices without getting the "no internet 
connection" error on them, and on my other wired PC's. Now, I'm getting 
75-80Mbps, and nothing else on my network can get a reliable connection. 
Very aggravating!
I'm about ready to restore the router to factory defaults and start over. 
It's just very puzzling to me when it really shouldn't be :-(
