This method works to bypass mega download limit for Mac OS but there are some downsides to this procedure. Those will be explained too in the later part of this tutorial. Don’t forget them to check them out for making sure your bypass works.

  • The first step is to Install HomeBrew on your Mac. It’ll be used to leverage tools for downloading Mega files. Open ” Terminal ” on your Mac and paste the following command:

/usr/bin/ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)"
  • Then follow the on-screen terminal instructions to the installation. Once the HomeBrew is installed, run this command to Install MegaTools Mac
brew install megatools
  • MegaTools Mac will be installed using the HomeBrew. Now it’s time to download some files using Mega Links.
  • Navigate to your desired directory. Let’s say ” Downloads ” – Default directory for storing all the downloads we do on our Mac using the following on the terminal
cd Downloads
  • Once you’re in the right directory of your choice. Just execute the following command:
megadl  'Your Mega Download Link Here'
  • Paste your Mega Download Link with the decrytped key attached to the link and also “quotes” are required for this to work.

This will help you Bypass Mega Bandwidth Limit and lets your download the desired files onto your desired directory without any hassle directory from the CLI

but as I mentioned there are downsides to this procedure despite being difficult when compared to the previous method.

Drawbacks of using MegaTools for Mac

  1. The difficulty level is high when compared to the previous method
  2. You can’t download files that are separated from the Decrypted key in the link. This option is still not available
  3. Most users reported that they’re facing the following error while using this procedure

In a nutshell, this is not sophisticated yet. But we can expect better in the near future. Fingers Crossed 😛
