at home when downloading stuff from megaupload, i get speed of around 160-180kbps.

using download accelerator called 'download them all', addon for firefox, my speed gets up to around 400-480kbps.

Half the figures in this thread are quoted in kb/s, and the other half in kB/s. 1 kB = 8 kb.

For me, download speed depends on the source, but it ranges from 50kB/s to 1mB/s (400kbps - 8mbps)

If your internet is alot slower than usual you may have reached your cap for the month. (I get up to 99.8% or so each month so I know)
