EM160R download speed is slow

Hello all
I finally managed to get my EM160R to seemingly work without dropping out via a firmware update (thanks for the helpful info).
Using speed test I'm getting something like 160ish down and 15up using Verizon. CA seems to be working.

The problem arises when I try to download something from Origin and a handful of other sites like GOG. It just putters along at a few hundred kbps. It GOG's case it tends to drop the connection and cancel the download. If I watch my ethernet "performance" in task manager it jumps up to maybe 30mbps and drops down to nothing. Just up and down over and over in little bursts.

Meanwhile over on Steam it's going solid up to 20MB/s


My ttl is set like this:

Code: Select all

Start-IP6-TTL-Fix
ip6tables -t mangle -I POSTROUTING -o wwan0 -j HL --hl-set 65
End-IP6-TTL-Fix
 
Start-IP4-TTL-Fix
iptables -t mangle -I POSTROUTING -o wwan0 -j TTL --ttl-set 64
End-IP4-TTL-Fix

Any idea's what might be causing this or how I might go about fixing it?
Thanks in advance for any help.
