Can someone tell me why I often have slow download speeds even though I = have broadband. It seems as though it often happens. The download starts = at a high speed, say 150-200kB/s and rapidly drops to below 40kB/s. This = happens no matter what server I am downloading from. Perhaps 60% of my = downloads are like this. Any enlightenment will be appreciated.
