Phmo: Slow Download
 

I am downloading a big file that's at least 700MB, but my speed is so low it's 5 - 6kb/s. I have DSL, so does the host (or cable). I don't understand why it's on that speed. Kazaa is a lot faster than this junk. Well, anybody please help me out?

i have the same problems downloading files about 700mb,

i have a dsl/cable, i have a pentuim 4, with windows xp (not updated with the new upgrade add on). the connection comes and goes, should i plug my connection into my computer modem rather than the router, will that help my connection speeds?

i'm really ultra new at this, so any help would be awesome, and i'd welcome anyones imput. thanks
