I have found over time that if you properly configure Your Linksys for either UPnP or Port Forward the frequency that you have to reboot it decreases.
Well, I reset my modem just before I went to sleep and let my computer on all night. Downloads were in the 20s up to 80 with some files before I left them. In the morning some of the files were still running and connected to even 9 hosts but they were down to the low to mid 10s again. Yes looks like somehow it does build up a bottle neck in the long run.

So I reset the modem again this morning and the same files are back to mid 30s to mid 50s.

I have yet to play with my Linksys too, I just wish the LimeWire developers would look into this. I don't recall this happening in the past with even lower versions. I am tempted to try going even lower versions like in the 4.6 range.
