Yesterday I was able to download a movie in about 5 hours. Average speed was around 30-35 Kb/second, which is decent. I've had my best luck in the wee hours of the morning where many times transfer rates are over 100 Kb/second. I'm not sure if it's LW or WB that causes the slowdowns during the day. My cousin has Roadrunner cable and he says his downloads slow down at times also.
