I am getting the message;

"You're using the free download service and have exceeded your connection limit of 2 concurrent download threads. The free download service is also limited at 300KB/sec per download thread in order to ease the load on our servers and to keep it fair for other people downloading.

You'll need to wait for your current download(s) to complete before attempting another download."

This is despite not having any downloads open.

Well actually, your IP does have downloads open. You're using a 3G/4G provider with a shared IP address:
netname: SFC-GPRS-EDGE-3G-SERVICE-POOL2

Keep retrying throughout the day or use the paid option.

I'm trying to download the latest promods. There's unfortunately just one problem. When I'm trying to download the mod, I'm getting limited without having any downloads going

Try other browser. (I recommend Microsoft Edge if you use Windows 10)

It could be that you are on a SHARED internet connection (Mobile, CG-NAT, University or Work network).
In those cases you need to wait until the other downloads have finished before you can start.

There is nothing to fix. There are only two reasons why this would happen:

1) Somebody else on your IP address is using multiple threads (which means you are using shared internet, CG-NAT, mobile network, or work/university network) -> wait until they are ready.
2) Your software configuration/browser/download accelerator is starting more than 2 downloads at the same time. Use a different browser.

Something seems a little off at least. I had the same problems at the weekend and had to try a LOT, despite definitely not being on a mobile network and doing a few tests to confirm I'm not on a CG-NAT either.
I've had no problems at all using either download method in the past, and had downloaded the free version as recently as December 31st, before having to do a complete windows reformat last month.
Nothing has changed in terms of my internet or ISP since then, but here we are.

Ok, my problem was the second, with Google Chrome and Opera I could not download it but with Mozilla Firefox I could.
How can I download it with Google Chrome or Opera? I never use Mozilla Firefox and I prefer to download it with one of these two.
I never use a download accelerator and I don't know if it was activated accidentally.
