Now on quite a few occasions I'm getting between 1.2 and 1.3mps download speed using my newsreader from the newsgroups. There are of course accasions where I'm getting rather less. Anyway, if I download a file from say Rapidshare on a premium account, should I expect the same sort of download speeds? At most I'm usually getting 100KB/s. Web pages seem slow to load and when the kids use Youtube, it loads slowly and you get stuttering. I would've thought it should be able to cope quite easily.
cheers
