Hi, after reading many posts I am still unable to speed up my limewire. I have done a test on speedtest.net and my results were:
Download - 810 kb/s
Upload - 158 kb/s
On average I am downloading at about 40 kb/s. The maximum I have ever downloaded is around 115 kb/s. When the speed test says I can download at 810 kb/s I wish to be downloading on limewire at at least 700 kb/s. Can somebody please help me saying how I can manage this? Thanks in advance.
