Do I have any influence regarding speed instructions ? I got a 100kt instruction quite early during the descent. Not really appreciated for a Super King Air.
Is there any setting regarding the speed range ?

Yes, various:
- On the "select a flight plan" page you can select an approach speed for your aircraft (and save it as a profile)
- In the Options #2 -> Advanced Options you can select a checkbox and a value for "Final App Speed". Look at the ? tooltip for details.

In your aircraft profile which comes up when you select a flight plan make one for your Super King Air if you haven't already done so. I would suggest Approach Speed 150kts. That will be the last speed call given to you by ATC on approach just before you start down the glideslope. Then at about 6DME slow down to your Vat+5 for your landing.
