I use KaZaA (w/ Diet KaZaA) to download videos/songs. I would average 100-200 kb/s. Then I bought a Linksys 4-Port (computer) router and im sharing it with 1 other computer. Now, with KaZaA (w/ Diet KaZaA) I get no more then dialup speed. I average now, seriously, 1-5 kb/s for videos or/and songs. Anything that I can do to increase it whatso-ever? This is a dramatic decrease in speed, but just for KaZaA. Other downloads dont decrease this seriously (like from dedicated servers). Can someone tell me any tricks or tips to get my speed increasing? Thx!
