If you have multiple files downloading at once, this is the expected behaviour. For example, if you download two files while blocking ads, the speed of the two downloads should total to ~1MB/s.

Supporters are users who previously bought a Premium Membership that has since expired (or who have specifically bought the 'Supporter' membership from the site for a price of £1.29). Users in this tier will have their download cap increased to 2MB a second, which is double what Adblock users will receive. This tier includes 'Supporters', recognised mod authors and users who do not use Adblockers.
