Your ports are probably not forwarded. Check that out. There are many articles/threads on this subject on the web as well in this forum itself.

the speed you are getting is near perfect. You simply can't get more than that on your connection unless you upgrade your BB package.

256 kbps = 256/8 = 32 KBps which is the maximum for your connection. I too use a UL 256 kbps connection. Speed you get is more than good. I struggle to maintain to + 30 KBps continuously.

He is getting good speed while standard downloads but low speeds in torrents.

As I said, in my earlier posts, probably ports are not forwarded. But it could also be for the fact that the torrent you are trying to download does not have sufficient seeds.

Use Firewall ,I also had the same problem..
