The download speed depends on various factors (general internet traffic at any given time, number of file hosts, files hosts' LW configuration, etc.)

LW Basic allows you to connect to 3 Ultra Peers whereas LW Pro allows you to connect to 5 Ultra Peers, which should eventually give you a better download speed.

So, it's rather not a fails advertisement, it's more a lack of knowledge of users....

Just because your internet connection runs only at 56k doesn't meant that the statement made by LW is "intentionally" fails !!

The built-in function for connecting to 5 Ultra Peers allows users to get a better download speed with pro than with basic....period !!

If that is technically not possible cause you are already limited to only 5-6 KB doesn't change this fact !

Upgrading to a faster internet connection (Broadband/Adsl)....

If there is no broadband/adsl in your region, I know of GSM internet access using a USB-connected modem via "internet-mobile" cards that connect with some 256 kbps which would give you at least some 20-25KB...

From the side of the application you run already on the max. possible....
