[speed/latency] Speed problems

Well, i've spent several hours trying to figure out why my dsl speed is so poor. I have the "5.0" so they like to call it but, as for a download, i never get over 350kb/s. one time i woke up to find a torrent downloading at 2mb/s but that was the only time, EVER. Otherwise i see nothing but 350kb/s max. why is this? shouldnt i be getting alot more speed? tweak tests say im fine. when i do a speed test i get 2100-2300kb/s why not on a download? anybody have a clue? I've tried to download from fast sites, torrents, everything, nothings fast for me.

Seems you're mixing bits and Bytes. 8 bits (speed) to the Byte (files). 350KBps = 2800Kbps
