My uTorrent settings for my 100mbit connection.
Meomix:
Sorry bob the other servers were even worse 1mbps i retested the same server after installing TCP optimizer then cranking the lever in general settings to max and it's only slightly higher than before.
Restarting my computer to see if that helps.
Edit: Boo didn't make much of a difference, it's like there's a speed cork hiding somewhere in my system.

do post the solution if you find one, i`m itching to boost my speed as well, i could only use about 800kbps worth even though i got a 2mbps line, though usually its at 1mbps... stupid ISP.
the only app that could saturate my line is flashget, getting like 200-300KB/s download speeds XD

200-300 KB/s on a 2mb/s line is pretty good. 2mb is only 256KB, after all. So that shows it's not any problem with your line; if you get slower speeds, you're probably either downloading from a slow server, or in the case of bittorrent, it's being throttled.
Incidentally, everyone should try and use the right notation. Kb is kilobits, KB is kilobytes. Same for Mb/MB, etc. It gets quite confusing trying to figure out which one people mean at times when they don't write it properly :P
kitamesume:
the problem is only flashget could do that. Utorrent, firefox, etc. can only manage about 50-150KB/s
the thing about flashget is that its too aggressive(saturating every possible connection for a single file...), plus its a hit-and-run app(downloads and no upload).
Edit: my main speed tester is flashget on a big file =P if it does not reach at least 200KB/s download speeds then the ISP is acting shitty again.

the other question is if its an "up to 100mbit" connection, my hunch is its on the ISP side, which usually is.

My windows settings are fine, using windows 7 ultimate:

Here are my results when using speedtest:
Although it doesn't show, my upload speed is around 1.2 - 1.4mb/s
