  1. Power cycle the router/modem
  2. Uninstall the current ethernet drivers and install the latest version
  3. Try another ethernet cable

There are 2 sides to a download. Your side and their side. Are you able to download something fairly large from somewhere else to see if it's your end or theirs?
Eg. Use chrome and try downloading one of these files https://www.thinkbroadband.com/download

and see if it happens with that too. If it is only happening with your game then I would guess their server is the issue.
