Is my at&t data slow?

I have never been over 1.5mbps download on the nexus. I am in an unsaturated and smaller market it seems. (cant be for certain, charleston sc)
Is this speed normal? I thought I remembered seeing my friends droid on verizon get over 3 mbps. (although it was tethered to my computer)
sorry if this seems like a redundant question. I just want to know whether i should be worried given the radio issues with the tmobile version. I am reluctant to root it if I need to send it back.
If anyone can shed light on their experience with at&t 3g speeds that would be awesome.
cheers

p.s. I used xtreme labs and speedtest.net apps. tonight i am getting .5 mbps. YUCK!

1.5 mbps seems to be OK, I dont know what they quote 3g at from AT&T (when I worked there they said it was 768kbps, but that was when 3g was first launched). In Tulsa I did 3.7 down, 1.3 up. Saturation and backhaul I imagine are the key factors.

Best I've gotten in Cincinnati is this:
speedtest.net/android/1860842.png
Kinda sad isn't it...? I usually float around .4-.5 down. This is even when I get kicked up to hsdpa. I hope Cincinnati gets gets better speeds this year.

Thats about what i get when im traveling through large cities on 3g but where i live there is no 3g only edge and im lucky if i get 40-50 kbps lol

T-Mobile is working to bring more backhaul and much better speeds to most of their 3G markets this year...you should definitely see an improvement soon.

I just did a test and best I got was 1363. That's on at&t in DFW.

[Q] What 3G speeds are you getting? Is this normal?

My girl just got a D2G at my suggestions (since she's on verizon and NEEDED a keyboard and didn't really like the Merge).
I have run her 3G speed test a few times outside and she can't even get to 1mbps? That doesn't seem right to me. I'm on t-mobile '4g' and getting a minimum of 3mbps (up to 6mpbs), and while that's at the low end of '4g' it's trouncing her speeds. I thought 3g speeds were better than that, and I expected her to get 3mpbs on the high end and 1.5mbps on the low end.
We live in Albany, the capital city of NY... and have 3g coverage from all major carriers.
Anybody getting better speeds?

Yes, she turned her phone into a vagina.

Here in the big city of Topeka,KS I usually get around 1.5 mbps with my D2. Just ran a speed test on the iphone I tote around for work and it was a blazing 0.55 mbps.

Here in Central NJ I usually just leave it on wireless, but I just checked 3G speed and got a disappointing 0.87Mbps.
I'll be turning wireless back on now. Ah.. much better!

Ive got speeds of 1.5mb to 3.5

In in the cap city better known as Albany too and get good speeds over what you recorded either......might be something to let vzw know or try switching towers, might help.

[Q] How are your Streak ATT Data Rates ?

Can you guys post your data rates received ? I feel like my streak is crawling since Dell318 2.2 network wise, in 2.1 it was pwning my TMO buddies with 2MB/s down and like 1Mbs up.
Now I'm getting like .6MB/s down, thats right barely 600Kbs and 1MB/s up, what gives?
Oh I used speedtest from market in case you're wondering

After I updated to 2.2 (via the QDL tool), I got 2.2 down and 1.3 upload

Yes it seems my speeds are better. Especially upload speeds. I used to get half a gig.

I'm getting 2Meg up and 1 Meg down
Sent from my Dell Streak using XDA App

I an on the 318 pkg, and get over 3MB a lot @ home. Occasionally I get 4MB though. This is good enough that I can play PS3 Call of Duty with no lag. On the 315 update my speeds were faster though.
Sent from my Dell Streak

WOW something must be up with my Streak I no longer get over 2MB heck I struggle for just 1 MB I think it might be a FL thing maybe.

there was something weird about atts network. it was only 600kbit in alot of places. theyve gone around and fixed things up it seems. i get 5mbit up and 2mbit down at my house. thats faster than any other mobile network provides and even faster than what i get wired to my house. i end up never using wifi, which does lead to me hitting 2gb all the time. if i didnt have the unlimited data plan, id be screwed.
they stop counting at 2gb, which i why i think they limit data to that now. the att mywireless app is critical for anyone who has capped data though.

General 3G speeds

I am a bit curious as to what 3G speeds you guys and gals are getting on a normal basis.
I usually get around 2 mbps down and 1 mbps up, and I live in the outskirts of orlando. For some reason, it's actually faster here than in the middle of the city.

Usually where I am, at full signal strength I get about 1.7mb. I've never reached 2mb

I'm lucky to get 1mbps down and 1.2 up.....but i'm also in the middle of a frickin field

around 1mb down and 700kb up.
Same place with ATT on my iPhone I was getting 2.5mb down and 400kb up.
Doesn't seem any slower though *shrug*

Live in the mountains so mines realllllyyyy slw.

Same here. I am in east Tennessee.

I work for USCC and typically when I have done tests on our wireless card and different phones in store around 1.5mb down and somewhere around 600kb up. I don't have a clue on my fascinate since I just use it on wifi and as a music player/camera/camcorder.

I get about 500kbps down and 700 up. It angers me very much how slow it is. Every other phone I've tested gets at LEAST 1.2Mbps up.

Are all of these speed tests listed here running on 3g or mixed bag w/wifi? I know the title asks for 3g speeds, but 2 mb looks like wifi to me. Not disputing, just clarification/confirmation.

Heres about what i usually get at home on 3g.

Nice...very impressive on 3g late afternoon

Currently fixing my broken EC01 modem, so can't do any testing now. Here's one from a week ago though

Post your mobile data speeds!

I had never been concerned with data speeds on the Moto G, it always just worked and I never had speed issues so I didn't worry about it for the most part. But after doing some testing I'm pretty impressed with the throughput on this device.
Please post your carrier, geographic area, and signal type, strength, and band (use LTE Discovery or SignalCheck Lite)

I"ll have to do a screenshot later but I know I don't approach your best speed. The best I"ve seen is about 45Mbps down and 8 to 10 up. I have AT&T in Greenville, SC and I get my best speeds testing to a Comcast server in Atlanta, GA about 110 miles away. My pings run 89-90 ms. Of course there's so many people here with cell phones and it's just you and that other person in ND isn't it. JK

I haven't seen that. Of course I work for them and we're usually the last to find out.
