Thanks, the adjustment for upload, was exactly where you said (in front of my face). But, there is no equivalent for download.

Well, tried all the suggestions in you link, nudged it every which way, and did not see any noticeable difference in performance. And I was only doing 2 or 3 files simultaneously, all 4 stars. It is even worse for people uploading, they flicker between 0 and 2KB/s.
