XoloX automaticly detects your internet connection speed, but you might want to go to tools>preferences>network and see what the upload speed is set at. the download speed is all ralative to your download speed i.e if you have upload speed at 1 or 2 kb your download speed will be much less than with the upload speed at max. on the otherhand it could just be bad luck. Remember to check how many scores a file has before you download it(higher the score the better the chance of it downloading and at a faster speed).
