Game Downloads keep cancelling themselves on Quest 3

hi im having an issue when trying to download asgards wrath 2, im on q3, every time i try to download the game, the download stops and the asgards wrath icon goes back to install, i normally get between 100-600mb when it does this, the highest download i have got to is 18gb, i have restarted the quest and done a factory reset, there is plenty of space and i have tried different wifi networks. i can download and install other games just not this 1.

I'm also in UK, but up in Scotland, and I created a brand new meta account for the Quest.

Does everyone have the 512gb headset?

Me too I am also in Scotland. Made a new quest account and unable to download Asgards Wrath 2. I also have a 512gb headset.

Mine has finished downloading & is now installing (has been for the last 40mins)... 🤞

I've seen some comments elsewhere suggesting it may get stuck installing, but if it's already been a decent amount of time you can just restart & it'll be installed fine.

Yeah I'm on the 512GB version, I also have the Elite Battery strap attached too, not sure if that affects anything but worth mentioning.

So do we think that we're all in the UK?

I've also seen this issue with games installs and updates just stopping after a 100MB or so and resetting back to you having to install/update again.  I fixed it by using a broadband connection as I found using a 4G router or my phone hotspot caused this issues.  The 4G has been fine for my PC etc. with no downloading issues it has only been the Quest 3.  I'm also in the UK.

OK so next question for everyone, is anyone on cable or landline based internet?
I'm on Three 5G home broadband here.

I am also on Three 5G internet. Have tried 3 different 5G connections and all had the same issue. Not tried a fibre connection yet.

YellowBack Are you still having this issue at the moment?
My internet provider has been the same for over a year now and I have never had an issue, this just happened in the past 3 days or so.

12Titans OK we might be onto something......but it still doesn't explain why it only just started happening??

chrisgv01 If you don't mind me asking, do you also happen to be in the UK and on Three home broadband?

I'm on Three 4G, but I've only just swapped, and still have my old router, so I've tried TalkTalk standard broadband too. No difference....
