Due to unforeseen circumstances, I've had to reinstall the game. The launcher says I'm downloading with about 800kB/s (I've got maximum download speed set to Unlimited).
My ISP says my download speed should be around 6-7Mb/s and this is taking forever... :(

Is this normal? O.o

    Its most likely because there servers are at full capacity so can not offer you the full download speed that your ISP provide.

    Lucky you, i get around 300-600 kB/s, if I can download at all because I've been getting the webget request failed error. But yeah, servers are really busy right now I guess, so it might be normal :)

    I read somewhere that (on the older version of this forum or Bathsedas forum), if you already have this game but only want to update some files (patching) then it would be possible instead of downloading all files again. Might be a better solution for you ATM, if you still have the main files for this game on your computer.
