How can I improve my download/upload consistency

My so-called broadband connection should be able to download 300 kB/s and upload 40-50 kB/s, but uTorrent only reaches that speed in bursts.

As you can see in the above graph, my upload reaches peaks are regular intervals then dips to about half speed.

The peaks in the download chart are even more pronounced.

What could be causing this and what can I do to down/upload close to my maximum speed more consistently?

How do you detect throttling by an ISP? My ISP is AT&T in the US.

I was also speculating that this could be caused by TCP/IP configuration, I'm on WinXP.

I've used SpeedGuide's TCP Optimizer and patched my tcpip.sys to raise my socket creation limit to 2048 using another program.
