Try opening the client, cancling the download if it starts. Click preference and make sure all the optional stuff is off. Leave only Additional Live Game Content on. This will allow you to download only what you need to play the game, and will reduce the download time. If you have already disabled these, then I guess you have to either wait it out.
Upgrading your connection would also do the trick, but that depends on where you live, and cost of doing so. I live in Canada where appariantly we are a bit advanced in internet connections due to it being easier to set-up such connections in a region with a smaller population, thus the reason why America has more dial-up companies since everyone has a phoneline, but not every area has enough cable/dsl lines to support everyone in the region. However this may have changed, I know this was a fact like 3-5 years ago, but I've seen a lot more cable/dsl commercials showing up on american tv channels.
