Let me start off by saying that I am not trying to minimize anyone's frustration or irritation at not being able to access the DLS or to suggest that those feelings are not legitimate. Nor is it my intention to defend Auran/N3V or its service policies. I am simply reporting my own experience.
I have had no issues with access or downloading within the last week to ten days. Information that may be pertinent:
Software: 2010 build 44088, CM v3.3
FCT: Yes
Connection: High-speed (cable)
Location: St. Louis, MO USA
Typical access: 5:00am-5:00pm CST (UTC/GMT -6)
I typically access the DLS three or four times a day during the hours listed above. I'd say that my daily average is probably around 100mb so, with an FCT, I am not connected for a long period at any one time. Most of what I have been downloading has been around 1mb or less, though I did download two routes of about 35mb each during this period.
My own conclusion is that either I have been incredibly lucky or that the issue is not with the DLS or its servers.
