Hey, new member here :)

Like the name suggests, i'm looking for a way to speed up my BT downloads, which currently never break 5Kb/s, often hovering around 2kb/s. I know there are other threads on the subject, but searching through them has revealed no way for me to speed up my downloads, probably because my lack of any experience with fiddling with network settings and router configurations. I know the fact that i'm in Australia would be a limiting factor since a large majority of seeds would be overseas, but i thought I should be getting at least 20Kb/s, when many users i've seen on this forum have been downloading at well over 200Kb/s.

So i was wondering if there were any other Australian BitTorrent users on this forum, or if there was anyone with knowledge on increasing DL speeds in isolated countries like Australia. In case anyone needs to know, I'm currently running on a 512k adsl connection, with a link to the modem through a 10/100 Ethernet Switch. I'm the only computer connecting to the internet(other computer isn't in use).

Thanks for any help, even if it's just saying there's no chance in hell I can speed up BT :)
