Smile need help

I am having speed problems with LimeWire 4.12.4 that I just bought. I have a cable connection of 2.41 mbps and downloads was 307.86 kb per second. With LimeWire connected in turbo I am only getting a connection of 1 to 2 I KB's. I have compared my configurations with another user that has a connection speed of 1.25 mbps. and they are getting to download music at 25 kb's per second. I am hoping someone could help me with my speed issues quickly. I am not sure what is the problem, my computer is capiable of handling this program good.

Thank you

Download a file from here & see what speeds you get
http://www.magnetmix.com/video.shtml

Do a speed test & tell us your download & upload speeds
http://www.dslreports.com/speedtest?more=1

Have you used other p2p apps & if so, do you have the same problem?
Who is your ISP?

*Hope it was LW Pro that you bought, LW basic is free. Did you get it from www.limewire.com?

Did you have speed probs with Kazaa?

Those magnetmix files should download really fast, if they don't it can point to an ISP problem. I can't find much info at all about your ISP... you should probably give their help desk a call & find out their policy on p2p use. Some ISPs shape bandwidth for p2p apps, which can reduce speeds to a huge degree.

If you find that your ISP are shaping your bandwidth, you could try changing to a higher port (try one in the range of 49152 - 65535). There's no guarantee that it'll work though! If you did decide to change to a higher port, you'd also have to change any port numbers allowed through software firewalls & also any ports forwarded through a modem/router.
(to change LW's listening port tools > options > advanced > firewall config. Apply to save any changes)
