The forums lag behind on level displayed. You can fix this by logging into the forums again.
The speed you go largely depends on how many lessons you do and which one’s you’re getting wrong. You need to get 90% of the kanji in a level to guru to advance to the next level. Some kanji won’t be available until you’ve guru’d the radicals that they’re made of.
Don’t feel like you need to reach a certain speed to be doing it right. You should go at the pace that works best for you. Keeping a consistent routine that you can handle is the most important part.
I recommend reading jprspereira’s guide to get an understanding of how the system works as well as a lot of other useful advice.
