I have been using LimeWire on a dial up modem for some time but just recently purchased a broadband connection.

I ran a test for my connection speed using tcpIQ Line Speed Meter V.3.0 (thank you LOTR) and my resuts were as follows :


Download speed : 1599.31 KBits/sec or 199.91 KBytes/sec

Upload speed : 136.07 KBits/sec or 17.01 KBytes/sec


How high do I set my maximum number of simultaneous d/l's?

At what speed should I set my u/l's?

I have seen no higher than 120kB/s d/l on simultaneous set to 20 and 11kB/s u/l set on unlimited. According to my connection I should be seeing close to 200kB/s d/l and 17kB/s u/l, is that right?

Could someone please give me an answer as to why I can't reach these figures?
