Connected to so many Seeders/Peers, but download still slow!

I’m connected to over 15 seeders, 2000+ peers, yet I download at 1kB/s…why is that? and is there a way to speed things up? I’m using .70 BitComet and downloading Hitman - Blood Money

Read the settings guide. Go over it all carefully, but pay particular attention to the sections regarding your listen port, and your global maximum upload speed.

Yup, it is configured correctly, my max upload is 10kB/s and my listening port is 60002, but downloads still around 1-2 kB/s…is it because I am behind a University firewall?
