Tried a high port number and encryption in BC, same shit.

The ISP is either blocking ports or capping my speeds.

40 kbps for DSL is ridiculous.
Sorry, I didn't look at this closely enough. 350 kbps is 43.75 kBps. No wonder simple browsing was fast, but browsing with a torrent running was really slow. 43.75 kBps is your current total download cap for any and all usage. I would definitely call them, complain, and get them to fix it.

Edit: OK, I see your most recent post. Do a speed test again (make sure your BT client is closed and you have no downloads running) and divide by 8. That will give you your total available download speed for all usage.
