Greetings,

As per subject, I experienced slow download to the latest magazine. And I can say, it is very slow.
It takes me more than 3 hours to download the magazine. This happen to May edition.

Also the e17SE, I need to open the alternate download site which open the PDF directly.
If I click the direct download button, it happens again, very slow download.

What did I miss?
I think that my internet connection in my office is good.
Thank you.

Your Wheaties?  Roll Eyes Grin Cheesy

In all seriousness, I cannot duplicate your results, so I cannot say what the solution to your "problem" may be.

Surely there are other mirrors with the magazine archives. We just don't have a list of these mirrors (at least none that I am aware of).
