Mine says 2.25megs on that website, but from heatnet i download at 359KB/s - So it's far from accurate. Go to sourceforge.com, find any decent sized file on there to download, and select heanet as the mirror. That will give you the peak of your connection.

no match on sourceforge.com but did get a hit on http://sourceforge.net/

Try saving this file

You dont need to complete the download but wait till it has steadied out.
Whats is ur transfer rate from it?

Tried that and it remained steady at 1200kb/ps using a download manager.

Without using a download manager I was getting a steady 800kb/ps
