I'd recommend getting in contact with the support team regarding this matter, for them to look into this in more detail.

Here's the response I got. I've already replied with an email that basically said, "Sorry dropbox support, you'll have to do better than that."

Thanks for the info, the support team will be able to investigate this further as you're already in contact with them.

Got a response from dropbox support and will update this thread with any resolutions.

If the response didn't help, reply to that ticket directly to continue the troubleshooting. 

Creating a new ticket would only prolong the troubleshooting since you'd need to start over.

I am also experiencing slow upload speeds with windows 7.  There was a notification of system maintenance last week and since then my files upload to 1 second remaining then I get a upload or server error.

@xerkon I pretty much got the similar reply =(

I'm on a Mac and I was trying to upload some files and it was giving an ETA that was fluctuating between 1 hour and 3 hours per file.  I took the same files into WeTransfer and the upload estimated 15 minutes for all 3 files.   REALLY frustrating to pay a premium for DropBox and have the free service of WeTransfer blow them out of the water speed-wise.   I really hope Dropbox looks into this seriously.   I will have to seek another option if it persists.

So I have to confess that I found the source of my problems.  I found that I was experiencing slower internet upload speeds on other sites as well.  I did a factory reset on my modem/router, reconfigured my internet service provider information in the modem/router, and now have much higher upload speeds.  This action solved my issue with dropbox as well.  Thank you all for your inputs.

Just finished typing a response to dropbox support. They keep wanting to blame firewalls and networks. Here's how I see it, as simply as I can put it:

If, under a particular OS, program A uploads a file to dropbox.com at speed X, and program B uploads the same file to dropbox.com at speed .1X, the fault has something to do with Progam B.

Is my logic wrong?
