haakuturi: Ah ok, if you're on the Pro then my idea before was wrong (which is a good thing!)

Not entirely sure what the error is, if other people are getting good speeds =/

Im on SS 25GB FS/FS plan too.

But Strange it get the same speed on the US and Europe servers... But others here get good speeds... very strange.

What IP did the file download from for the fast people?

Hmmm, I just downloaded a torrent file and got 100kb/sec. Also downloaded a file from Microsoft. Its going along at 600 kb/sec. Why can't I download the file I want from www.wouxun.com any better than 190 bytes/sec. It sounds like a slingshot issue if others are able to get this file okay. Might give them a ring.
