Speedtest - G2 and Desire Z General

Why is my G2 getting 6 mbps on wifi while my mytouch 4G slide gets 19 mbps on the same wifi?
This seems weird because the G2 has hit 17+ mbps on other wifi anyone have any idea why its getting low speed compare to the slide?

I have noticed my G2 not getting a full 12mbps from my wifi router that is 15 feet away it only gets like 8mbps or so, whereas the computer right next to the phone gets the full 12mbps - so I know just what you are referring to!
I have not yet figured out the cause myself

They were both next to the router tho the mytouch got 19mbps and the G2 got 6

Did your phones both connect to the same server when you performed the test? Perhaps that may have contributed to the difference in speed.

You misunderstood my post. Speedtest connects to a server usually hosted by a company somewhere nearby to perform the test, and the mobile app uses GPS to find the closest. Perhaps your phones connected to different servers for some reason. If you run a few more tests on both at different times of the day then you can rule it out.

Ego download speeds

I just got me evo yesterday and I am loving every minute of it. I was just wondering if maybe you guys think my download speeds are slow or on par. I am using non WiFi 4 bar 3g and getting dload speeds of less than .5 mbps. Is that normal? Anything I can do to improve my performance? Thanks

well i dont think my Ego gets any speed at all.
i get like 2.5mbs in 3g and wifi it depends on your wifi connection i got a 3mbs package and get around 2.8mbs on my phone!!

Unfortunately, Sprint's network seems to have taken a beating. Even worse, if you have rooted your phone, your PRI gets dropped to 1.34, which is a lot slower than 1.40 from what I've heard - I haven't noticed a difference in data speeds between the stock phone and what I have now but that may just be my area.
BTW, I am testing an average of 600-800 kbps using the Xtreme Labs Speedtest from the market and about 200 upload.
It seems to vary a lot for me. I get from .8 mps to 1.9 mps on average. On wifi though, I have a 1.5 mps connection, and that is usually about what I get.

I get 1.5mbps to 2.X+mbps on 3g easily.
I get around 1-2 mbps on 3G and 3ish on WiFi depending on signal. I have a wireless n router at work and I've seen over 7 mbps on that.

I average about 300 over 3g at home but 16 down and 9 up on wifi so it's a bit of a trade

Slow wifi?

I think the wifi on my G2 is acting up. I don't know if these are normal speeds for phone wifi, but here goes:
Right now I'm getting 24 Mbps when I'm about 30 feet away from my router and behind one wall. I'm on a linksys wireless N router. I can get you the model number if you need it.

I'm not quite understanding your question? Is your G2's wifi downlink 24mbps because that isn't slow at all.
24mbps is what's listed when I go into settings and tap on my network.

24Mbps to an N router 30ft away? Yeah that's really slow...
I had problems downloading files from my server on my LAN via wifi... it was ridiculously slow.

Just scored 0.12 mbps on download and 0.10 on upload.
How can I improve this ? Make my phone faster

going to need more info about your phone...ex...version,rooted or non rooted,any kernel...like that...
just did mine and it was 2.53 dl and 1.08 up...with nero3 beta...
...and are you using Speedtest to measure 3G or your wifi or what?
I'm sitting in my house right now in a major metropolitan area and the 3G speed on my stock Vibrant is about 4.2 Mbps down and 1.8 Mbps up. When I turn on the phone's wifi connection to my Fios network, I get about 22-24 Mbps down and about 3-4 Mbps up. If I move around or go outside, these speeds will vary.

It appears as though you have exceeded the 5gb data limit. After this billing cycle is over, your connection will return to normal.
Ya that might b it. I'll run it again when billing cycle ends
Thanks

You should know. You would have gotten a text.
Jesus...
Or you can reboot and try again. You also might be in an area with a high amount of data traffic. For example when i'm at disneyland, I get full bars but my data speeds are crazy slow. It's probably the same when at a sporting event. 40k people and at least half of them with smart phones trying to access the internets will cause a slow down. But like the other guys said, we're going to need more information.
Ditto, sounds like your being throttled. Try it on wifi. Remember, download **** on wifi if you can. Don't go rom crazy on 3G.
Don't blame me, blame my keyboard's autocorrection algorithm.
Recently I was in phoenix and the 3g was full bars buy totally unreliable. I switched to edge and it was three times faster than hspa
You might want to switch to only gsm network and see if that helps

So if the phone can get those speeds over wifi would I get those speeds over 3g/4g if it were available?

No. The fastest you will see from this phone is a little over 5Mb's down (in near perfect conditions) and i'm not sure about upload but the fastest i've ever had was 1.8Mb up.
Even if it were available over the T-Mobile ? Why or why not...just trying to get a better understanding as to why over wifi and not over the network IF it were available

Agreed! The vibrant is not a HSPA+ device meaning it is not "4G"

kinda need more. did you have WAYY higher data speeds before? your problem could be 1 of 2 things...maybe both.
1)Bad coverage
2)data throttle
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=872570
check my thread about a temporary fix for throttling. its just easy as changing the APNs. i'm working on a permanent fix by creating a services.jar mod,but its not working out so well.
This is ungodly slow? 4 speed

How are you getting that high of internet speeds using your FIOS network? I have FIOS 30Mbps download and 15Mbps upload, and the highest download speed I've gotten on my Vibrant is 13Mbps. I am using a D-Link Wireless N Router (2.4 and 5ghz) which consistently gives my wireless computers 30Mbps, but not my cell phone.
I'm curious to hear what radio you're using and your current setup (router, router settings, service plan, phone settings, etc). If anyone else has any ideas, please let me know what you're doing to get above 13Mbps on Wifi.

Just did mine in New Port Richey, Florida.
5.73 Mbps Download
1.48 Mbps Upload
I believe our phones are capable of 7.2Mbps download on our Hsdpa network connection. Most of the new t-mobile phones that are coming out are capable of about double the download and upload speeds that we can actually achieve.

Wow... You can not control your speed only YOUR ISP can..
Unless he means Wi-Fi and if you have 54g 802.11g you will be maxed out. If wired is faster then just get a wireless router and disable the wireless on the modem.

Depending on the interference. My wireless router in an apartment only maxes at 10 or maybe 11 Mbps because of interference. It may be slow on Wi-Fi or it may not be.

D801 Slow wifi

Hi
So lets get straight to it. Im rooted using IO , freegeed w/twrp, running stock rooted 10g rom. I have tried several roms and none of them on a speed test show me able to get over 3.8 mbps yet I get 8 mbps upload. I checked my pc, 30+ mbps download on there. Checked my gf's (completely untouched by me lol) g2 and she has the same problem its like it capped at 3.8 mbps on the wifi. 4g im getting 30 mbps. I am using comcasts phone/modem/router pos and when i checked i saw its 2.4ghz so i selected 2.4ghz on the phone along with turned wifi battery saver off. I have pretty much tried all I can think of. So now i need your help! I switched over from my lg og to the g2 and the og worked fine on this router.
Maybe try changing the channel on your router to 11?
thanks for the reply, but did not work.
Is it an old router?Try your phone with another router.
I'm guessing since its Comcast crap and only 2.4 ghz no 5 option that it is old. Lol. Just not sure why my og worked fine with this router, my brothers og pro is fine. But not our g2's

I don't need to go anywhere today and its cold out I don't want to just go to see atm. I'm wondering if I use my gfs g2 as a hotspot if I could see if wifi works that way. To bad she's at work lol
Sent from my LG-D801 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Cool, gf came home, turned on mobile hot spot, 30 mbps. So it is this pos Comcast router. I wonder if I call them if they will give me a newer router. But is there a special feature needed by a router for these phones? I'm confused lol. Why only g2's on this router?
Sent from my LG-D801 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
@ripbabey Turn to WPA TKIP only. The G2 hates the Technicolor AES+TKIP combo. Fixed mine. Weird thing is, works fine in AES on my SB6141 and the Arris. No further idea about it. Something just isn't getting along between the two. I'm not technical enough to dig deeper.
I'll check that out thanks
Sent from my LG-D801 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
You're welcome. It will work. I about returned the Technicolor because of this.
That actually improved some speed Mr not technical enough lol. I'm getting 12-15 mbps now which is matching my computer. So now when my speed picks back up from Comcast I'll see if I get any higher. Thank you so much!

I was getting over 20, which matches, winter weather is hindering my connection. How I miss underground wiring.
Lol. So far so good, was about to just go get a router. Now it looks like I don't need to.
