You are with Optus? If yes, AFAIK they do not normally shape bandwidth for p2p sharing. However they may shape your bandwidth if you go over your monthly quota of bandwidth. But then, satellite is a totally different story.

The last figure you show should be KB/s not kbps !
kbps = kilo bits per second. LimeWire shows Kilo Bytes per second. 1 Byte = 8 bits. So 478 kbps divided by 8 is approximately 60 KB/s.

Are these gnutella network files or torrent files?
