Default download speed help

Hello, I joined so I could get a little help. I read some of the foums but they didnt help. I have people pc and connect at 115.2 kbps and have had download speeds between 0-6kB/s (sucks, I know). Sometimes I start downloading at 6 but most of the time it stays between 0-3. How can I make it consistantly at 6 or even faster.


More info...
1. OS version? (eg: Windows 98)-XP
2. What firewalls you have?-McAfee
3. How much ram?-Don't Know

5. Connection type? (eg: dialup, broadband, cable, etc.)- dial-up
6. Modem & router brand name & model numbers?-Don't know
7. Where are you trying to connect from- House
8. What version of LimeWire-4.12.11 and 1.5.0_03
9. Who is your ISP- People PC
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?- It works
11. Are you sharing the connection with other computers or p2p sharing programs- No
12. Is this a your 1st try at LW or is this a new problem with an experienced user.- I've used it before on another computer
13. Do you see a brick wall in front of the blue world icon at the bottom of LW's interface?- No
14. For those using a modem/router, how is your modem/router set up...are you port forwarding or is UPnP enabled?- I believe UPnP is enabled
15. What security programs are you using (antivirus etc)? Some people might not be aware that their security suite includes a firewall - McAfee
16. What country are you living in? Sometimes there are ISPs with the same name in more than one country- USA

Sorry, but I'm not that good with computers, if you need more info you might need to explain how to do it or what it is.
