Nopy download speed is really slow

Anyone else is having issues with nopy recently? Normally my download speed (with nopy) is about 3,5 mb/sec. while now is 500kb/sec.
I've already checked my Internet connession and that is not the problem since other hosts, like mega, work fine.
Any ideas on what the problem is?

Sometimes the speed fluctuates if there are many users downloading in your region and nopy's servers are saturated. The dl speed usually picks up after some time has passed.
My speed is fine atm.

I'm not grumpy, I'm just coded that way.

some caches that are down. 2 for Europe, 4 for North America, out of 5 for each. So, it's not really surprising that the download speed may be low sometimes.

Note: while writing this, the last surviving North America cache had peaks at 104% ;)

NA caches are completely down, guessing Euros can still do some downloading, but NA will probably give the Error 500.

For a few days now, I (Euro) have always been getting errors:
Error: Secured connection failed

As an american, I couldn't download anything from nopy earlier, now it seems to be redirecting me to the EU cache, but almost as soon as the download would start, a blank screen comes up saying

You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.
So yeah, Idk

Edit: All the Eu caches seem to be up and running now, but all the NA ones are still down.

Edit 2: Tried downloading a different file, that one used Cache 2, and that worked.

Last I heard, they were looking at alternate providers because their current ones are like Scrooge McDuck on crack.

I've always gotten about 600 kb/s with them, but recently I've noticed that downloads completely fail with JDownloader, with the error either being "404" or "host problems". Checking online status reveals that the file exists, and the links are valid. Trying to restart the download fails, resetting it fails, and I end up having to use other much slower download links. Not sure what the hell is going on.

Same here, I use to get 35-40 MB/s but lately I'm barely pushing 300kb/s

So far my best choices are
Mega, Mediafire and Workupload

all the others give me between 300kpbs and 1000kbps

Same, Nopy is slow for me again and the download is often interrupted. I've been experiencing it for about a week and a half. Nopy was my favorite choice.

Been having the same problem for awhile now. But seems to have cleared up today. Suddenly everything is downloading within a few minutes again instead of hours.

And today I am having problems even starting downloads again, either giving a "page not found" when clicking download, or its saying "you already have 8 open connections".
