What sort of download?
Some websites cap per connection to allow more connections without killing their connection (possibly solution use a download manager that can open 2 or more concurrent connections), torrents and the like vary wildly depending on how many others are uploading that particular file (and their speeds and how many are downloading it) etc.
I saw someone complaining quite heavily about how when they go to apply the latest Warcraft patch their downloads go from 1900k to 100k the other day on another forum, it turned out (from memory) that the warcraft patcher uses a torrent style download and defaults to using as much upload as possible (which always kills download speeds).
