Is it normal for your download rate to go to shit when you don't have any limits set on your global upload speed?

My download rate always drops down to around 1k/s when I turn off my normal 15k/s upload speed.

You on dsl or cable? What's your speed? You probably have a symetrical connection, meaning saturating your upload speed will kill off your download speed. Seems like you have a 128 Kb upload cap. 128/8 = 16 KB/s.......

I have a cable 3 Mb download/256 Kb upload, if I upload anymore than say 20+ KB/s, my download speed will plummet.

I'm on adelphia powerlink. For everyday stuff, my speed is about 350k down, 30k up.

Heh, I am on Adelphia Powerlink too. So I don't know what's wrong.

Damn, I rarely hit past 250 k up and 22k down.......

that sucks.

Depending on where I download from, i I max out at 400k/s or so.
