Hi. Speed depends on the speed you are getting from your isp. This should help you understand things a little better
For the purposes of Limewire If you have a connection of up to
56 Kbps you should set your Limewire to Modem and you will expect a speed of 6 KBps maximum on your downloads
350 Kbps set to Cable/Dsl for downloads of maximum 40 KBps
1000 Kbps set to T1 for downloads of maximum 100 KBps
3000 Kbps or more set to T3 or higher for downloads of maximum 350 KBps or more
Note that ISPs give speeds in Kilobits per second Kbps
But downloads appear as KiloBYTES per secons KBps ...
I Kilobyte is equivalent to 8 Kilobits
You can run a speed test on your connection at

I have given you the speed settings for Limewire, which are not necessarily the speeds you get if you purchase a T1 connection for instance.
You have in fact posted in the Phex forums, so please take care in future to post in the correct forum. Alternatively you could try Phex. We think you would like it
