I recently got into downloading NZB files tonight. I have newshosting as my host, but for a 200GB NZB, I only get 2.5MB/s maximum. My connection's download speed as tested is over 50 MBps, so I should have faster speeds, right? In this case, it's going to take my download 20 hours to complete. I did this to save time compared to using a torrent, which would take 24 hours; however, I was hoping for 1-2 hours for completion. Is this normal? I have adjusted cipher keys and increased servers to no avail. Any help would be greatly appreciated to speed up my download.

First try the test-download in the Status and Interface settings window, there's a test-download of 1000MB and 100MB.
What speeds are you seeing there?
