If download speeds are slow use a "Download Manager"

I just downloaded FlashGet because last night I used the regular download, got shit for kb/s and went to sleep, only to find out my mom turned off the computer and with my shitty internet these past few days I was even lucky that it started yesterday.
Now my internet didn't even connect for 1 hour, but all of a sudden there was this disconnection, and I thought "maybe they'll fix it.." and woah and behold! My internet was back on track and faster than it was the past 5 weeks!
So anyway, I'm using FlashGet right now and instead of 6 hours it's at a MINIMUM SPEED of 540kb/s, and it reached 700 not long ago.
A matter of 30 minutes!

I suggest the download manager called Orbit. It's free, no spywares and increases download speed by around 500 percent.

I downloaded the client with Download Accelerator Plus (despite the name, it's free) averaging 1mb/s

You're kidding me right! That's what I ended up d/ling, and it took my client 9+ hours!? WTF!

At least I have it now...
