This is only a problem if upstream and downstream of your internet 
connection are separated, like e.g. DSL. The 64 kbit connections that I 
know (ISDN) share the upstream/downstream bandwidth. Is that the case 
here? (Question to original poster)

Still I'd try to tweak the settings (max_upload_slots, 
max_hard_upload_rate [not too high, not too low], 
max_opened_connections, max_concurrent_downloads, 
max_connections_per_second, max_indirect_connections [should be > 
max_opened_connections], ...)
