    My ISP runs a bandwidth monitor on their customers, they are the ones who
    reported this. Then my router shows actual statistics of traffic going
    through it. Further I dowloaded tcpview to see all socket connection on my
    computer to make sure nothing else is running on my computer except my p2p
    which was capped at 3kB/sec + AnalogX livestat network traffic grapher shows
    me bandwidth on my adapter, which it shows correctly at 3kBytes/sec.

    Well, I never reached the 800, 600 is what i can really get

    Thats just it, my p2p is cofigure to cap at 3kB/sec uploads
