When I download music it wont download at more than 5KB/s and usually just downloads between 0-3KB/s. Lately it has been between 0-1 and it takes me 3hrs to downoad 1 song. I have a wireless connection similar to DSL and I did a speed test and got 650-700 KB/s. Why does my limewire download so slow, anyone got any suggestions. |
It might be because there are others downloading the song at the same time you are. Also, the person with the song may have a modem which is slower than dsl, cable and the others. It took me forever to download a song yesterday and when it got near the end of the DL it said it was corrupt. I have the same song on my PC but it's not completed. It was cut off before it finished downloading.
