you shouldn't judge your download speeds from P2P as you are restricted to what you are getting from the various sources who are upping to you

from newsgroups (the best way to download imho): 2mb max on a 2mb line.

Was paying for a 3meg connection, haven't got a clue what it is now. Actual downloads are impossible.

Bad if you're on 3mb - it's half the speed

10meg max 9.5meg avg is hard to judge since it depends on the source but I will say avg 3-5mbit.
