After 2 hours now I've downloaded 11.3 mb of 58.9 mb with the blizzard downloader, and I've searched all over the net and I can't find any mac mirrors to download the enGB updater.

Does anyone know where to get the patch?
The macgamefiles.com mirrors are just broken links btw..
 
Seems like Blizzard takes a dumb on mac users... -_-
Same problem here. Found a windows mirror, which downloaded with 400 kb/s . cool. useless.
 
my vista laptop updated in a flash.

my mac pro has been going all morning, 3+ hours. All for a 56MB patch... no mirrors either!

What's going on?
 
I've always found the Mac patcher to be ridiculously slow... Downloaded within 30 minutes a few hours ago on my Mac. Are you a US client or EU client?
 
Downloaded fine for me. I logged in last night - saw the patch was downloading so i went and got a beverage - by the time I got back the patch was downloaded and had started to run. Maybe ten minutes start to finish? I'm on a NA west coast server.
 
EU server, Portugal, downloading now @ average 100Kb/s with 130Kb/s high spikes and 80Kb/s low spikes... very slow since i'm using a 30Mbit line and i'm the only one using it... just browsing and downloading the patch...
 
Mine went fairly quickly. Maybe 10-12 minutes from start to finish. I'm in the US using a wireless router. Generally things go a lot slower if I'm using my WPA-protected router though.
