The steady low line to the left of the graph is it using the “local network” from my computer (didn’t even know it had one) and it goes straight up when I interrupt it and tell to switch to the WiFi for download. And it keeps doing it so I have to switch the the WiFi manually every time. Why is that so and is there a way to “always use WiFi?”

    Some ISPs put a data cap every month and games are big af files, so steam made it where if a game is already installed on a local computer that has steam open it will try and copy the files over your local network. It could be slow if the other computer is being used or the drive it is reading the data from is slow.
