1. I'm running 6mb broadband on my computer. I've just got myself a download manager and can see that i'm only getting download speeds of 60kb/s. Is thgis normal speed for my internet connection and is there anything I can do to boost my download speeds?
  2. You should divide your maximum speed by 8, that's the speed you can get in theory.

    6 MB download means 768 kb/sec max. So it's way too low, it starts getting normal at 500 kb/sec. I think you should contact your ISP, or test it at another PC.
  3. it's only slowed right down over the past week or so, so i'm not sure what could be up with it

    Can't you try it on another PC? Maybe there's a virus or firewall problem.
