Ok, i've gone to various forums reading topics on how fast there limewire download connetion goes. I test my download and upload speed at a site which gives the following result:

download = 603 kbp/s
upload = 140 kbps

But can just about reach 40 kbp/s, averaging aroun the 20 kbp/s mark, and i was wondering if i must have my configurations wrong or wotnot?

Regards,

Joe

Sounds like your ISP is throttling your download speeds.

Ring them up and ask them how they feel about P2P downloads.

Try changing ports, if you have a firewall installed allow limewire full access to the network, if you have a router make sure your ports are forwarded, read the guides in this forum for details on how to do the above.
