Default Limewire Pro Download Speeds

Hi, im new to these forums, anyway:
I have Limewire Pro and had the free version of limewire before the Pro version and both of them have had extremely slow download speeds. I have had a look round these forums to see what i need to include to help you people.
I dont know if this'll make a difference but i live in the Isle Of Man if that means anything to the download speeds.

On the speed test i got results of 1841 kb/s download and 239 kb/s upload, although this was done on the Ireland server as there isn't one in the Isle Of Man and i have set my download speeds on Limewire to 33.25 KB/s for downloading and 21 KB/s on uploading (Not at all sure if i've done thsi correct though). I also have the Java Version 6 Update 1.

1. OS version?: Windows XP Home Edition
2. What firewalls you have? Windows Firewall
3. How much ram? 1.00GB
4. Hard Disk space available? Free Space 50.8GB
5. Connection type? Broadband
6. Modem & router brand name & model numbers? Ozenda Wireless Router
Number: AR4505GW
7. Where are you trying to connect from? Home
8. What version of LimeWire (LW) & Java do you have? Limewire 4.12.6 Pro, Java 1.6.0_01
9. Who is your ISP provider? Manxnet
10. Do this simple test for us. Using your browser go here: http://www3.limewire.com:6346/ The page should say 'Your test worked!'. What happens when you go there? says you're test worked
11. Are you sharing the connection with other computers or p2p sharing programs? Yes, this laptop, another laptop and a desktop PC all share this connection
12. Is this a your 1st try at LW or is this a new problem with an experienced user.? Had this problem always with limewire
13. Do you see a brick wall in front of the blue world icon at the bottom of LW's interface?yes


Cheers for you're help
