I just DL'd a 289.02MB torrent in 5:17, and my speeds maxed out at 1.30MB/sec. I think my cable company must have just done some upgrades to their system.

i have about the same speed down, a bit more actually. i wish i had more upspeed though, it's only 40kb/s
I get about 70-80 when I'm maxing out.
man, i wish. did you change any specific setting or are you running it on default mode?
It's just my service provider. I run on default mode. Over time, without changing anything, my speeds have gone from about 45 up to 60 or 70, and now they regularly exceed 70. It's just upgrades that the cable company is doing. It must be. I haven't changed anything. I just tell my programs to go as fast as the wires will carry them.

i hit about 1.1 MB/sec down and 1.3 MB/sec up at the same time on a wireless connection while snagging some stuff from dime the other day. nothing like a blazing fast university connection and N-draft wireless card...

That's a pretty small torrent. 40 minutes of music in FLAC. Full concerts or DVD's are much bigger.
Or you could get the entire PJ 2006 tour in FLAC. Only 62GB!!!
