i'm using bandwidthplace.com to measure my internet speed. And here it is:

Download Speed: 422 kbps (52.8 KB/sec transfer rate)
Upload Speed: 202 kbps (25.3 KB/sec transfer rate)

Can you please explain to me how did they get the 52.8 transfer rate. And how do I get to lower the upload speed in order for me to get higher download speed.
