Alex if you can? Take the router right out of the loop for a bit of time.

Before going thru the work of making a static IP and port forwarding only to find out it cures nothing.

I just today took my router out of the loop. Cycled my modem.Boot up, launch LW and results are exactly the same.

What this told me was the poor performance or connection problems had zero to do with my router.

Hope this helps?

Try and download a magnet file from here and see what speed you get for it, then post the result as well:http://www.magnetmix.com/video.shtml

The low speed could be connected to many reasons, such as your own internet speed, the speed of the file host, the time of the day, how many hosts of the exact same file. There is know simple answer to this question.

Post back with the result and we go from there.
