I think we should do some speedtesting, to determine which network is fastest. Get yourself speedtest, detail your provider and post your results. Make sure to disable wifi.

I would have to disagree with this... with Orange i am lucky to ever get HSDPA ... but when i slap my o2 simcard in my Hero i get it almost all the time and its super fast upto my Orange Sim

Not that happy!!
Mansn > I've actually moved from orange (10+ years with them!) to three network 2 weeks ago and really pleased with the performance. I choose "three" purely because their network is heavly focused on data plan rather then voice plan. Grab yourself some free sim (see three website), it doesn't cost you anything and worth a try.
Unlimited skype (but not sure if skype lite for android can use this), unlimited Window messenger, facebook and I think bebo+myspace all can be used for free. "free" 150mb internet + text for every topup - if you want more internet, a fiver will give you 1 gb amonth.
I am curious to find out what other peoples speeds are. Mine is 956 up and 786 down. I used the speed app with the blue speedometer from Ookla that runs on speedtest.net
Using the "Speed Test" app, my speeds vary of course but typically are between 1200 and 1800 kbps download, and between 640 and 700 kbps upload.
1184 Down (spiking to 1350)
680 Up (spiking to 800+)
speetest
My Evdo speeds are just as fast as my wifi speeds usually 1200-1800 and 700-800. No clue why my wifi is so damn slow.
Depends on where i'm at. At home they range from 800-1300 up and 500-700 down. At Work i've gone as fast as 2400 up and 800 down. Location and weather seem to have a big effect on speeds.

Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
I just got 1.5 at -85 dBm. So, not bad.
Sent from my iPhone with the bigger Gee Bees.
someone want to move this to the general section.
why on earth would you post this in the Dev section.
*Please forgive my noobness*
The Focus is my first smartphone. I live in Columbus, OH. I have the $30 unlimited data for smartphones. I talked AT&T into reverse grandfathering me into the unlimited plan.
I had major issues two days ago trying to stream music from Last.FM. It wouldn't, I had 4 bars 3G. I used the free speed test app. The very best Ive seen on it was a peek of 107kbps with a 68kbps average being the best I've seen. A low ping of average of 639. most of the time I see 12-20kbps. So I call AT&T 611 customer service. After waiting on hold for about 3 minutes my rep cam back and told me the average data speed is 19kbps for data nationwide... . Their web site states speeds ranging from 2Mbps-7.2Mbps.
So all numbers aside, my coworkers on Verizon and T-Mobile are opening web sites on there phones sometimes 10-15 seconds faster then me. I read people stating speeds in the 2MBps-5MBps range.
Is this an AT&T thing, or a Focus thing? I live in a pretty high tech/low population city compared to other major cities in the country. I do live a few miles away from The Ohio State University, and its 55,000 undergrads. But even at work, or on the freeway, my speeds stay really slow. I know I'm spoiled with my 35MB per-second home connection speeds, but I really though mobile data would be faster then dial up.
Can you guys please share your speeds and advise with me. Much thanks in advance!!
I'd start off by first understanding that 2Mbps - 7.2Mbps is way different than the value you're stating of 2MBps - 7.2MBps.
There is NO way, to my knowledge, that the 3G networks of AT&T or Verizon supports up to 7.2MBps. And I've yet to experience even 7.2Mbps myself.
What are you using to test? If you're using the one and only Speed Tester in the WP7 Marketplace, I've heard it tends to output low speeds.
I get about 28-58KBps, which is pretty much suck. But I don't really get much better with Verizon where I am at the moment, either.
By the way, in general, Samsung's have this unwritten reputation for having shoddy radio baseband software or even hardware. I have witnessed this firsthand on all my Samsung phones.
Both my Samsung Focus and Samsung Fascinate average lower data throughput both on mobile broadband and WiFi than my HTC Incredible or my Blackberry. No idea why, for sure.
I would not base my speed on the app provided in the marketplace. I would more likely base it on web browsing and check out a 1 MB download on http://www.mobilespeedtest.com
This site yields accurate latency at the top of the screen after test and i think this site yields a better network speed test.
Update you might want to try 3-5mb tests just because they are yielding faster speeds almost reaching 4g speeds...average 2232kbps

Nice site. This seems much more accurate.
I called an AT&T store, asking them what to expect. They guy did tell me he went to seminar and got a Focus for free, he has a Blackberry Torch too. He said in every way he has tested it the Focus "crushes" the Blackberry. Anyway, he asked what phones I had before, (LG Xenon, Krazor, Razor) he told me to come in to the store, that they wanted to give me a new Sim card free of charge. He said he was 75% sure my speed would increase. He stated that my Sim Card being ~4 years old is probably affecting how the network sees my phone. So I'm going up there in the morning, then will retest to see if there are any changes.

Your sim is definately affecting your phone speed...I would put $100 on it. I am yielding speeds such as these.
100kb - 560kbps
500kb - 960kbps
1Mb - 1440kbps
Wifi speed is dependent on what wifi you are pulling from.

Also try http://www.dslreports.com/speedtest (choose the mobile test.) Good latency test there, too.
I've actually been pretty pleased when compared to an iPhone 4. AT&T is poor where I live and the iPhone cannot hold a call longer than 5 minutes. I kept an old Fuze around for those times I knew the call would go more than a couple minutes. So far the Focus hasn't dropped a call and data is noticably faster than what the iPhone pulls. I haven't done a ton of tests over several days but a few tests with the same sim card (using an adapter in the Focus) had the iPhone pulling around 260 kbps while the Focus was pulling a little over 400 kbps (1MB test). Yes, seriously. I wouldn't mind seeing some numbers from the Kissimmee area where the iPhone 4 flat out screamed.

WiFi test results: Speed is about double reported average, but latency is 7x the average! (is the latency so high being caused by security on wireless router? I'm sitting 3 feet from it)

all 4 were in a row did a test... waited a min or 2 did a test... not bad.. i used to get speeds close to this on my samsung O2 custom rom...bloatware removed... not a bad phone so far... also was done with 3 bars in a house....

My results had WiFi with a lot higher latency as well, but only not as bad as yours. 3G latency was around 300ms. WiFi with wireless N was around 1100ms. Big jump.

So far the data speeds are not stellar for me. My iphone 4 blows it away currently. I want to like the phone but i want speed.
Just got my new SIM card. I'm most pleased with the effects. 1st the " robotic voice " friends and family reported at times is gone. Very obvious real world results. Netflix quality, and streaming music from Last.FM, download music from Zune all have a dramatic increase in performance.
Here are the mobilespeedtest.com results:

3G, two bars
1500 down, 450 up. Let me add that this test was done while in a small, remote town and not a big city.
I'm seeing about 3 mbps down but about 350 up. I hope HSUPA is enabled on this phone.
What test are you guys using that gives up speeds?
www.dslreports.com/speedtest
Ive tried both the 'iphone' and 'simple' mobile speed test. Nethier give me upload speeds, just down and latency. The java and flash test don't work on my Focus.
Am I missing something?

The problem is in your operator. You are getting 1 megabit on LTE. I am getting 50+ mb/s on my RMN3
