Default Uploading Fast, Downloads slow - not fair!

On a home network with one comp running LW, and bandwidth set to 100%, download from me at nice speeds and I get 1k maybe 4k - and if it hits 10k tops - I get really excited.

I'm a nice person and share everything I have downloaded. Right now I'm downloading 2 at 6K and UPloading 19 at 78K!!!. One movie that is 39% complete will take 18 days, 9 hours, 32 minutes!!!!! And this is the third complete day! It's not just that sender/host. They are all like that - music included.

Cable modem BTW

I'm tempted to shut down UPloads to one at a time and limit that.

Trouble is, I tried different settings and still - I'm giving out more Bwidth than I can afford. I have 4.9.23 Pro. I upgraded to get inproved dloads and am thinking about uNloading this and going back to the beta - it downloaded faster! What can I do to get some bandwidth back and soem semblance of a download or two happening?

I saw some posts about going to Options Uploads basic and changing things, but this version doesn't have many of the of the "Options" refered to here.
