this speed is happening even when im connected to 10 hosts
the speed does increase slightly when im downloading at night as i would expect but still not over 40

Looks like Xtra have a Fair Use Policy which might account for your speeds

I can't even find that policy on Xtra's site but you might want to check with them & ask.

If you can find a model for your D-Link, we might be able to help you get rid of that firewall icon but if Xtra are throttling download speeds, it's possibly not going to make much diff to your speeds. One of those links above says that they're only throttling during peak hours...have you tried downloading during off peak times? Are your speeds slow with Azureus & BitTorrent as well?

Ive tried to get help here none of it has worked limewire keep the money. It was fun while it worked.

they do have a fair use policy but after the fair use policy hours the downloads only increase to about 30
on my modem it says dsl-502T is that wat your looking for

my speeds are even slower with Azureus & BitTorrent
