KiloBytes or MegaBytes?
If KB, its quite slow, if MB, its quite fast.
Answer varies on your location.
As a general "good internet speed," most video game console manufacturers recommend at least 3 Mbps of download speed and 0.5 Mbps to 1 Mbps of upload speed. Source: Gospeedcheck
Yes the main contributers to download speed is how much you pay for and how good the upload is from the server you could pay for a 20mb download speed but if the server only has an upload speed of 10mb you can only get a speed of up to 10mb
It is average, so it could be better
Increase your max upload speed. Vuze will limit your download speed based on your willingness to upload. Or find torrents that have more people seeding. Either would be good options to start with.
Your upload and download speed are dependant on what package you have with your Internet Service Provider (ISP). Upload speed is generally very low in residential connections, but the higher your download speed is, the higher your upload speed will be, in most cases.To increase your download speed you will have to contact your ISP and ask them to increase it, or complain if your not getting what your meant to get.
Yes it does, especially if your upload speed is very poor.
Yes
cant
You can test your download & upload speeds (and ping speed) at a site called Speedtest. I use it about once a month just to check my broadband is giving me the service I'm paying for. See the related link for the web-site.
Upload speed refers to the rate at which a computer is sending requests to the server. The requests can be uploading a file or communication packets.

The download speed is typically the faster speed offered on broadband connections to the Internet. Most data plans for high speed broadband services feature a faster download speed, that an upload speed. This is fairly common and is called asymmetric. xDSL, aka digital subscriber line, has ADSL which is asymmetric, and SDSL with is symmetric. The download and upload speeds are the same for SDSL, and the download speed is faster with ADSL, but the upload speeds are slower. My cable connection for data, for instance, is 20mbps down, and only 1.5mbps up. This is an asymmetric plan which is fairly affordable, however, if I tried to garner a faster upload speed, my rate plan goes up substantially for what appears to be a small increase in upload speed (nearly double the monthly cost for a mere 768k faster on upload speed) and for some connections purchasing more upstream/upload speed isn't even an option as it is restricted due to the distance you are from the drop (as is the case with xDSL technology).
