It depends on who you are connecting too and what their upload speed is - so if you hit somebody with a great connection (usually the swedes) then you will get a great download speed because they have a high upload speed.

Get somebody from the UK though and because most people only have 256k upload you will probably only get 14k as thats what it'll do at its maximum. Add to that most DC++ users allow 3 connections and then you could end up with only getting around 4 or 5k.

Aim for the swedes my friend.
