Yep, if I upload but cap to say, 50% of my total upload so I can still do my normal tasks, I receive crap for download speed.

BT is nice in theory, but it sucks on an asymmetric connection. I hate it when I have to use it.
Ever since I replaced my Westell WireSpeed modem with a SpeedStream modem, that problem has gone away. Apparently, the new SpeedStream modem can optimize for ACK packets, and that mitigates slow surfing.
