107 kb/s is 13 KB/s... are you sure you haven't got the bits & bytes mixed up?

My connection is "up to 8000 kb/s" (which is up to 8mbps) & I can download at almost 200 KB/s.

My LW shows downloads in KB/s... if you're really seeing kb/s then I think there's something really wrong with your connection
Grandpa... do you want to come in here...
