Are you sure its the download? A high upstream on dsl greatly reduces
the downstream. With ~18KB/s upstream the downstream goes down to
~1KB/s.

Also pppoe has bug that makes pppoe quit when there are to many
packets to send, i.e. if mldonkey runs and fills the upstream
completly.  You should see that in your syslog and after that you
won't be able to reconnect for a few minutes.

Debian has a fixed pppoe in sid and the patch is on bugs.debian.org if
you have non-debian but still broken pppoe.
