I've got dsl myself wich is comparable with broadband.
And my dl aren't always going as fast as i want them to be,but 26kb is not a bad average,believe me.But you can expect yourself to much higher speeds when you got good sorces.I only had one source once wich gave me 200kb/s.
Just be patient or look up a popular file and see what speeds you get.I think you'll like what you see!

look into news gourps or bittorrent if you want speed
try taking a broadband test http://2wire.com sounds like you just haven't got a good source or a popular file from lots of people

I am downloading popular files when i get those speeds about 20 soruces but shouldn't i be downloading faster?

It depends what broadband connection you have ...
I have 576k sp can download at a speed of 60kb max ....
Sounds like you have 256k ... so 26 sounds about right.

max ive ever got on a bittorent download was 120, that was fun, but the tests show my connection is capable of a lot more, this test actually came out slower than another test i ran, but still
bandwidth = 883.7 Kbps
Thats with ntl 1mb connection, with bittorent d/l running

anyone how has cable or adsl should look into news gourps, so fast, you get the complete download bandwidth, its worth it, I wish I had knew how cool they are allot sooner
