Is anyone else having issues downloading off the ORBX website? I've been trying to download the updated AI traffic but the download just stops before it completes EVERY time.

Which one are you trying to download the 4.10 438.7MB or 4.20 11.5MB update?

Edit
Just done a download test and found that AI Traffic 4.10 can only be downloaded with a download manager I am using GetRight download manager.
The download dropped out about 7 or 8 times but was able to resume each time until I got the full download.

A good free download manager is DAP Download Accelerator Plus

Yeh I just don't understand why it drops out like that. I haven't needed a download manager for years.

Hi Guys

I always use, where possible, the ORBX CLOUD option rather than the FTX Patch Server. I think there is something wrong with the patch server but their IT expert will deny it. I also used Internet Download Manager which is great and has some other options (like being able to download You Tube videos) and increased download speeds over the default downloader.

Cheers

Bernie

Yeh they used to have the cloud option but it's disappeared. Who knows what they're up to over there.
