thanks,

how come i can not download files from any sites at speed of 1.8mb/s while my download speed is 15mb?
well your getting 15Mbps and 2Mbps down

NOT MB

15Mbps = 1.8MB 2Mbps = 230-240 Kb a sec

if i had 15MB connection
u be getting 110 Mbps + that will be able to get in about 7 to 10 years from now
while japan it's @ 1000Mbps and 100 mbps

i know that. i think you need to read that line again one more time. i clearly stated that. except i didnt capitalise the B for Byte.

arent you trying to be smart? because im afraid that i did not say i had a 15 MegaByte connection.

what we're trying to tell you, is it depends on the site you're DL'ing from. you say "any site". how many did you try? 2? 3? the speed test sites do a TCP download, which tests the DL speed, so if the servers you're trying to DL from aren't giving you 15mb/sec or near that, they're too slow...
