    You're only as fast as your source(s). Did you enable port forwarding (6881-6889) on your router?

    Hi,

    Plus, the file is coming off of Suprnova, I say you are getting medium speeds, the section on fordwarding your ports are Click Here
    <span style='font-size:11pt;line-height:100%'><span style='color:blue'>VEGASGUY</span></span>

    Depending on your connection type+speed, those DL/UL rates may be bad, good, or neither.

    If you have not already done so, try limiting your upload speed from infinity (which you don&#39;t have) to 25 KB/sec. Infinite upload speed (attempts) causes "minor "broadband overloads which may be slowing your download speeds down.
