Are you willing to try an experiment? Try downloading a magnet link from here http://www.magnetmix.com/video.shtml & tell us what happens in regards to speed & connectivity, etc.

If you suffer the same problem, then chances are, the problem is your ISP. That link connects to a website which can potentially offer downloads over 200 KB/s.
