I have a Gigabit Connection but slow torrent Speeds....!?!

Have you ever hit high speeds downloading files via non-bittorrent?

I don't download outside bittorrent..

What do you recommend? Or where?

try something just to test it out.......see if the speeds are normal in that.

But, without a Premium account your speeds are limited.

So it won't give me accurate speeds, right?

Yes, Rapidshare limits speeds for non-Premium users, but as far as I know Megaupload doesn't.

I used MegUpload to download a 800mb file, and took around 8mins and averages at 2.5mbps Download

Something is wrong...

I have a Hacked SB6120 Modem, I shouldn't have these crappy speeds

You could try something from this site. Choose the American server to download from. http://www.gamershell.com/download_53592.shtml You dont have to download it all just see what speeds you hit. I max out my line of 1.9MB/sec on the UK server.

I hit 5.6 mbps before downloaded completed, it kept rising, but then the file finished downloading, maybe something larger in file size...
