Why do Steam downloads drop to 0?
Steam downloads can hit the 0 bytes/second mark due to a bunch of reasons. Your internet connection could be acting up or Steam servers are having a moment. Sometimes, it’s just Steam rearranging files already downloaded, especially with large updates or games. Your best bet? Pause and resume the download or restart Steam. Steam's like a moody cat; sometimes it needs a little nudge!

I swear, every time a Steam download drops to zero, it’s because my brother starts streaming in 4K in the next room. So, yeah, blame the family or roommates hogging all the bandwidth!
Quick fix if your Steam download drops to 0: check your network. More often than not, it's your Wi-Fi throwing a tantrum, not Steam.
