Do I have something set wrong in my preferences? Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thank's

stief's preceding comments are fairly much to the point... BUT, it would help, always, if you'd give a bit more detailed info...
What ADSL are you now using...?
If it's 256/128, than you'll be a very happy chappie to get 13 (and a bit) out of it...
And, remember (and no offense if you're aware of this stuff already...) No matter what bandwidth capacity another operator may have for their connection, YOUR connection (if it is the lower capacity bandwidth) will determine the maximum rate of transfer.
Have fun !!!
