Origin download slow: Fix problems

If your Origin download is slower than usual, one of the reasons just listed may be the culprit.

1. First perform a speed test to rule out errors of your Internet provider.
2. Then it is recommended to move the PC closer to the wireless router.
3. If the problem still occurs, see if a more current version of Origin is available for download. This can be found at ComputerBild online for free download.
4. After that, check your Windows PC for all updates. Versuchen Sie, Ihren PC so aktuell wie möglich zu halten.
5. Ist der Download von Origin immer noch langsam, so kann es eigentlich nur noch am Origin-Server liegen. Womöglich existiert dort eine Störung. In solch einem Fall hilft nur abwarten. Wird der Fehler nicht behoben, so lohnt sich eine Kontaktaufnahme mit Origin.
