I'm Australian, there goes your theory.
That said, I'm with our countries biggest ISP (Tesltra, aint cheap, but reliable and high speed), so latency and its relevant problems dont tend to be an issue for me. I also avoid wireless, as I view that only good for reading email and forums with, and not for downloading anything over 5mb.

I don't know how anything works on the internet... i can't understand why regular files download at 256KBps on any explorer, at 150KBps on steam and 750-900KBps on EADM, with the same connection... i Just don't know...

I also don't know why i've had zero problems downloading games that i've bought BUT with .exe files, it's not the same story... For Heroes of Newerth installer and all the DLC from DA2 and ME2 i've got lots of issues... IDK why.. xD

Can someone explain this to me? I download DLC from this page at 100-150 KBps aprox.

Download speeds vary depending on how much bandwidth the file prodivers have purchased, how busy the servers are, how busy your ISP is, how busy the lines between the provider and your ISP are etc etc.
I suggest you take the time to enroll in a computing basics course, as there is far too much to explani on why this is so than what we can tell you here.

The fastest I can get things to download here is 40KBps, and that is with a Download Accelerator, which Bogsnot1 mentioned can corrupt files. Normal download speed is 24KBps.  Normal downloader says I still need 12 hours to finish the Kasumi download   How I envy you non-Africans....

I just realised that the Kasumi DLC is downloading for 970 Megabytes, while it should be 991 Megabytes. This probably caused the problem, but I can't download it without it being 970 Megabytes. Is there any other legal link, or can I somehow fix this problem?

Not that i know mate... check this... i couldn't find it from anywhere else on the internet... it worked for me...

Mate, I'm Aussie as well. Melbournian to be exact.
Last year, when I tried to download the DLCs I purchased, it worked and installed fine. Now, since my computer got BSOD, I'm forced to redownload all of the DLCs and reinstall them. My net is Optus wireless and runs at around 320kbps.

I'm fairly sure that it is the Bioware servers that are the cause of the problem, not the net connection.

If you insist on using wireless for your internet, I'm afraid theres not much that can be done to help. Wireless is the least reliable form of internet communications due to the large amount of packet loss associated with it. The larger the file, the more packets that will get lost, and the more errors you will receive.
Just google the term "packet loss on wireless internet" to get a general idea on how unreliable wireless technology is.

Listen, Bogsnot1, most people use wifi these days. It's standard. If bioware's download service is going to crap out for wifi then it's their job to fix it. There are lots of data-transfer protocols that take care of packet loss on the client side. I don't know what it's like in Australia but in north america most people just have laptops and only use wireless without issue.

Anyways, I'm in Canada and I'm getting this issue for the Zaeed, Kasumi, and Shadow Broker DLC packs. I was also getting it for the alt-appearance 2 back but after a few tries it worked. Is there possibly some place the downloads have been mirrored?

1. Laptop manufacturers do not adhere to any recognized standards, not even the GPU producers' Tech Guides.

2. Until they do so, laptop PCs are not supported for official assistance, and I'm not that interested in filling in the gaps myself.

Please exlpain how it is Biowares responsibility to fix the communications between your PC, and your ISP when you are using wireless internet?
The problems with wireless internet are inherant in the actual technology, and it has nothing to do with the downlad service provided by Bioware, EA, or anyone else for that matter. As I previously mentioned, google the term "packet loss on wireless internet" to find out how bad that technology is. Just because its popular, that doesnt make it good to use. 
While you are on google, look up "arsenic complexion wafers". They were popular too, and they were not good to use in any sense of the word.

If you intend to not learn anything about the technology you rely on, and insist on not only remaining ignorant of the technology, but attacking the people trying to help out with problems, then you are doomed to have nothing but problems, and be frustrated when noone is able to help. 

Given that these are user to user based support forums, feel fre to sod off and deal with EA support, as they provide the official tech support for ME2. I'm not paid to put up with the rantings of an ignorant child.

at mine, the C-Partition was just full... made some space and it worked fine.
