    There is nothing wrong with our servers, download speeds are limited by your internet connection. Premium membership only removes the artificial limit we impose on normal members, you are nowhere near that limit. Since it is your connection at fault, there is nothing we can do about it.

    I will only join preium when my net speeds (of your range) improve.


    My net goes as fast as regular member speeds, preium won't speed me up, so prehaps find out your max net speed and try again.

    Jeesh guys, calm down. RomU already offers you so much. Of the how many thousand people on RomU there are like three people complaining. So it is obviously something on your side, maybe too far away from the servers or a family member on fb, I dont really care just stop complaining

    It's perfectly fine to complain if something isn't working. However, I would appreciate if people would work with me to figure out why things aren't working.

    The website is on multiple GIGABIT lines. That is way more than any home internet connection can handle. If it is not the end users computer or internet, it is the quality or length of the route between them and our server, which is again, outside of our control. We need speedtests and traceroutes if we're going to have any chance of getting anywhere with this.

    Same too me. I know these problems some of the Users above got. I got a very stable UMTS-connection, so each and every Download is around 40-45 kb/s - but with most downloads here on Romu I`m reduced to 5/6 kb/s. And it doesn`t depend on my connection, since I can go somewhere else and make a download with my bloody rest of 35-40 kb/s, while Romu`s still feeding my Computer with this obligatory 5/6 kb/s.

    There is a test download page where you can see what speeds you get on a premium connection. This is so you can test your full speed to the server, since there is quite some distance and different routers, etc, between the user and the server.

    I'm a non-paying member, but I get about 250kb/s on the European server (I'm in the UK). So RomU obviously isn't at fault.
