I just got DSL, but for some reason i can only download stuff at like 26 kbps max. Isn't DSL supposed to download at like 60-80? It says its connected at 100 mbps. Also how do I set Internet Explorer as my default browser?

downloading only matters how fast the uploader can upload. i can download at multiple mb/s, but i can only upload 250 kb/s max.
and usually it doesn't max out.
I don't think thats the problem. It does that even when i dl from the internet, and i've never been able to get it past 26.
And anyway you're d/l-ing with the speed of 26 kilo bytes per second not bits per second, difrence you ask ? 8 times faster :P
Also sources that you're d/l from may be slow, find some more, and try jumping super nodes, that can help ya.
About IE, what operating system you have ?
BTW. This should be in "Questions" and not in "Filesharing"
Also depends on what kind of service you are on. Where I am lower level DSL service is only 3x faster than dial up, next step up is 50x faster on DSL.
Try the bandwidth tests at this website to see if your connection is working properly.
