LOL. A lot of people only get 20-30kbps speeds with cable modems. Your download speed is more reliant on seeder's upload speeds than what ur modem specs say. If u want decent speeds, u need to upgrade to dsl or cable. Sorry.

that 46k is kilobits per second there are 8 kilobits to a kbyte (i think) so therefor you can only really get 1/8th of your connection speed. So 46 divided by 8 is = 5.75kb. No matter how many seeds you have your line wont support anything over 5.75kbps.
