The standard downloader is performing horribly. If you can, use a seperate torrent client to download the patches.
Does anyone have any good info on how to do this?
All die, so die well.
i forget where, but when you run the updater it puts torrent files in one of the ffxiv folders. do a search for .torrent or something, but once you find that folder just open the torrent files in utorrent or whatever you use.

That's where the torrent files are, just open it in a torrent program like uTorrent and download it with that.
The latest patch is named: D2011.07.20.0000.torrent
I had this same problem. I used uTorrent to download it in ~10 seconds, it took the updater about 30 minutes to get to 2.2% lol.
i had same problim tell i started useing bit host with in 30min im at 18.9%
That is another reason i will not play this mess of a game. two collector edition down the drain .. they need to fix the crap patcher and alot of ingame stuff. mostly the patcher i will not torrent patchs to a mmo was going to be AAA game.
