Our application has the feature of downloading a file through a stream. This works well unless the user’s bandwidth is low, at which point the download simply hangs. I am using Phoenix channels and push the streaming out to a task, and like I said, it works great as long as the connection to the internet for the requesting browser is reasonable bandwidth (WiFi). But if I connect my laptop to my phone’s hotspot, I am able to reproduce the browser hanging due to the low bandwidth. The poorer the connection, the sooner it happens.
I am starting to think this is a general browser issue (happens in Chrome/FF/Safari consistently) along the lines of this
Anybody have any thoughts?
