It sounds like you are using the correct software, Torrents require other people to be uploadinng, and 30k is about what you will get most of the time.

Just be patient.

300kbps ? That would be a little over 30KBps.

and it should either be 256/512 kbps, which one is it?

Uhh, checking NTl's website it looks like they only offer 1mb 2mb or 3mb...
Regardless don't excpect a torrent to max out your net connection, 30KB/s is a perfectly respectable speed for a torrent.

i disagree with you on that. Even on torrents with like 50 peers and seeders i get speeds ranging from 80 to 125KB/s, and my connection goes 165KB/s max. So its really not bad.
