Listening to port: 65535 (I changed it)

According to my ISP (Cablevisión, México City) my download speed is 128K (that is how they advertise it), I just called them and they tell me my upload speed is 64K.

Tipically my DL speed goes from 0-1 KB/s. Today, after tweaking a little from the advice in here I am reaching 4-10 KB/s, and I think I could get a little more.

Any help would be super appreciated!!
