Thanks Remoc, I've been adjusting my settings
and checking the resulting DL speed differences
(if any). Speed tests confirm that I do have fast
connection ability. I DL from Rapidshare at about
350-400 KB/s which is considered a slow rate as
I'm not a paying user, and is to be expected, but
I'm wondering why I'm getting only 10% of that speed
when using Limewire.
If I have the bandwidth on my end, then something is
bottlenecking/throttling DLs. It may be my settings or
some other variable as I have yet to see a DL at anywhere
close to 400 KB/s.

It could be that what I've been getting is what to be
expected and is typical.

Again, thank you for your input as I'm seeking peoples
download speeds so I can find the ranges that are out there.
