I didn't notice this yesterday for some reason, but do you say that you have your uploadbandwidth set to unlimited ?

Then there is no wonder that you experience some problems downloading.

This will make your Limewire weird when you are uploading at max speed, because the program won't have bandwidth to send messages to the hosts that you're connected to. You should leave some space for Limewire to work with.

300kbps/8 = 37,5 KB/sec
200kbps/8 = 25 KB/sec

I would try maybe 28 KB/sec. You might see some improvement with Limewire then. Also 20 slots for that kind of bandwidth probably causes a lot of irritation to others when several people are downloading from you.

I have set it to 50 KB up when in fact I have 59-62 in speedtests. That allows me to play poker without much internet delay under usual circumstances. If I have many Downloads from many hosts then I set it to 45 KB up if I intend to play during uptime.
