Default Another "Limewire Running Slow on Fast Connection"

I am getting download speeds of less that 5kb/s:
1. OS version? (eg: Windows 98) XP SP2 (with TCPIP patch)
2. What firewalls you have? Xp firewall
3. How much ram? 512MB
4. Hard Disk space available? 89% free from 100gb
5. Connection type? (eg: dialup, broadband, cable, etc.) wireless (54.4.MBps)
6. Modem & router brand name & model numbers? Linksys WRT54G
7. Where are you trying to connect from (house, appartment complex, school, student accomodation, work, etc.)? house
8. What version of LimeWire (LW) & Java do you have? (Go to LW's menu Help>About LW...) Will show both LW & Java version. update 09
9. Who is your ISP provider (Internet Service Provider)? platinum communications
10. Do this simple test for us. Using your browser go here: http://www3.limewire.com:6346/ The page should say 'Your test worked!'. What happens when you go there? "Your test worked!"
11. Are you sharing the connection with other computers or p2p sharing programs? If yes, please give details of set up. I'm on laptop, connected with on other home computer (has same problem)
12. Is this a your 1st try at LW or is this a new problem with an experienced user. just got wireless, but had faster speeds on dialup
13. Do you see a brick wall in front of the blue world icon at the bottom of LW's interface? no
I have uPnP enabled on my router, and have also tried port forwarding to no avail. I have set up the XP firewall to except Limewire, but that never worked so i disabled it, and that didn't work either. Files from magnetmix.com go very slow (0-1kb/s). I emailed my ISP, and they said that they don't shape P2P connections. They suggested configuring the router and firewall (which I have done). I'm all out of ideas, help!
