Why are my downloads so slow?
I've been using Limewire for a long time and I just recently moved into my college dorm. My wireless speed was 54 mbps and connection in my dorm is supposed to be T3 at 100 mbps. My downloads speed on Limewire went from 50kbs to 1 or even 0 kbs. I ran a test on my speeds and the first test came up 36 kbps for downloads and 243 kbps for uploads. I ran it again and I got 60 kbps for downloads and 41 kbps for uploads. What can I do to fix this download faster?
I tried bearshare, utorrent, and something called ares and they were all slow.

On speed:
You're using a wireless access point, using a wireless g connection. 54 mbps is the maximum speed using a wireless g connection.
On Limewire:
Your College is most likely blocking ports and access to limewire's servers to prevent illegal use of the internet. If in doubt, contact management of the wireless network or try a different p2p program.
