Cakewalk download speed

[Steve Kingsley]

I have been waiting for Cakewalk to download on my PC for the last three hours and the word ‘downloading’ is still flashing away as I leave it to go to bed! Can this be right or should I quit the process and restart?

On a normal connection it takes a few minutes.

Did you dial the right number before you put the handset in your 300 baud modem?

What does https://speedtest.net tell you that your speed is?  I am on 50 megabits per seconds ethernet wired internet connection and, for me, it only takes a few minutes.

65.54 mbps wireless - maybe I should try a wired connection - I left it overnight and this morning it was still downloading

It’s obviously hung up. Kill the process and try again. I would have done that after 10 minutes
