Don't know. You delay them again in arrival.

YouTube is great for walking video walkthroughs, if you don't mind spoilers. They enter through a Batarian system, unkown which system at this point.
How they enter? Unknown as well. But they gain access through Batarian space.

They don't explain in Arrival. They explain how they were going to rapidly travel through the galaxy when they arrived - using the Alpha Relay (a secondary relay with the range of a primary relay) - but we have no idea how they got here.

You didn't delay them and the Reapers have 300,000 new husks. Gratz.

They didn't arrive in Arrival (no pun intended) You were basically delaying them until ME3.

They say FTL I thought and also they take 2 years since that's the gap from arrival to ME3 supposedly.

Actually, I had thought that Chorban's email was a clue as to how they were getting back. Sovereign tried to send the signal early and failed. So, a preset, failsafe was set to go off. Of course, this implies that in every cycle, a Reaper remains to monitor and can, if warranted, open the relay early.
But, if that were true, then Arrival makes no sense what so ever. The Reapers Surely know exactly when the Citadel's timer would end and open the Relay so why push it forward by a couple of months?
EDIT: To clarify. The protheans did change a signal but that signal could have been just one of two. The early activation code might have been altered but the failsafe one missed.

Well they say anywhere from a few months to a few years.

Jesse Houston said specifically in the live chat demo that it's been between 6-12 months.

6-12 months after end of ME2.
2 months after Arrival.
Arrival will happen after SM no matter what.

I was referring to the estimate you are initially given in-game for how long it would delay the Reapers.

According to Jesse Houston, ME3 startes approximately 6-12 months after all the events in ME2.
So that means the events of Arrival bought about 6-12 months of time for the galaxy. After that time, obviously the Reapers get there the long way, by just flying to the galaxy.

I guess, by watching the very last video clip in ME2 just before the credits, the reapers travelled at FTL speed from dark space and it took them a little over 2 years to reach the edge of the galaxy.
Then, during the events of Arrival, they planned to use the Alpha Relay (which can apparently send mass to all other relays in the galaxy?) to spread throughout the galaxy. After that failed, they, presumably, spend the next 6 or so months (ME3 takes place 6-12 months after ME2) travelling to the next relay.

Sympathy4saren has a point. If you’re not there to stop the Arrival DLC it should totally change the begianing of Mass Effect 3. The Reapers would have full access to the whole galaxy, Earth would not be there first port of call, and they would hit everything at once.
I know they said that if you had not done the DLCs like LotSB or Arrival, they assume they have been done, but by who? Assumption is the mother of all ****ups. And if they have been done… it is no longer my story, once again I have been stonewalled in to doing something I never wanted to do, or even did!?

No offense, but the guy you replied to was referring to the gap between Arrival and ME3.

I seriously hope people aren't still thinking the Reapers "powered up" after ME2. They've been flying since the end of ME1, and ME2 with the human-reaper was just an experiment for Harbinger to confirm which species to attack, assimilate and Reaperify first.
