I downloaded the speedtest.net application and over the course of a month tested my speeds on wifi and 3g in Seattle. I was wondering what speeds people were getting as mine feel really low
For wifi I'm avging about 1/2 mbps (my upload is faster )
For 3g I'm avging about .5/.3 mbps
Is there a different speedtest I should be using? Are these speeds typical or is something wrong with my phone...
Thing is. I feel like the internet is pretty fast esp on wifi... maybe the readings are just wrong
Wifi N @ home - Ping: 37, Download: 2,245kbps, Upload: 2,822kbps
Wifi G @ work - Ping: 151, Download: 607kbps, Upload: 1,364kbps
3G - Ping: 138, Download: 802kbps, Upload: 427kbps
H - Ping: 111, Download: 927kbps, Upload: 244kbps
My 3G speeds have varied too much by location to really justify posting here. I've never seen over 1Mbps, but I usually see over 400Kbps down. Up varies a lot more, but never more than 1Mbps and never less than 100kbps.
But, what I did want to mention is that I have an N router with 20Mbit Comcast connection at home and my phone typically sees 10Mbit down and 5 to 8Mbit up. I also see speeds in that range here at work where I can't vouch for what kind of routers or what kind of internet connection they use, but both are likely fairly fast.
So, if you are only seeing 1/2Mbps on your Wifi, it is probably limited by your router or your broadband connection.
[BTW, browsing the web via Wifi at home and at work feels almost as snappy as my latest generation Macbook Pro. It was quite stunning compared to my G1...]
Tested my phone for couple days with the speedtest app. Highest I've gotten today is 3341kbps download speed. Usually download speeds are between 2500 and 3000.
Just curious what speed is normal for 3g downloads. Where I live (boonies) I'm only on edge but have wifi in my house. But at work, which is in a city with 3g, I see down speeds of maybe 100 kbps. Been awhile so I can't remember for sure. But the last test I ran via speakeasy.net showed me @ ~1.13mb down and up on 3g. What 3g speeds do you guys see and is my area just a turd or are those average 3g speeds?

I get somewhere between 2 to 5mbps down and 1.7 up, depending on signal strength.
Also, what area are you in? that will give us more info. (and as to whether its a hspa+ city).
The best speedtest result was DL:3.4Mbps HSDPA. Average is around 2Mbps. Telco: CELCOM Malaysia

Bowling Green Ky is the 3g area I frequent. Its 3g is piss poor pitiful then in comparison to you guys.

My n1 is on T-Mobile in lower Mahatten, financial district, I get 302 kbps down and 298 kbps up. It's not bad, but I wish it were better
Max was 4Mbps down and 1.4Mbps up or so.
Average is about 1/2 of those values.
At home at around midnight I get around 5.5 mbps down. 1.3 up.
Edited: ok -got my answer: speedtest.net
How do you measure DL and UL speed ?
Where are you guys that are you getting such good 3g speeds? I'm Manhatten and it is horrid.
I average around 2mbit down, 1.2mbit up here in Central Kentucky, but I've seen as high as 2.6mbit down, 1.5mbit up.
Just ran a test, 2.4mbit, 1.3mbit. Why the Speedtest app picks weird random servers I don't know, but what's funny is I usually get the fastest speed on the one it picks so I just leave it alone.
See my sig. I always get these speeds, live in montreal. This carrier is new so there isn't any congestion...
my average 3G speeds. NYC. my top speedtest is at 6.3mbps
I live in Corona CA, which by no means is a small city and i routinely get 4-5 Megs during what some would call 'peak" hours and anywhere above that late night.
At work in Hillsboro, Or. I get from 1.5-3.5mb/s down and 600kb - 1.5mb up. On ****ty ATT.
This is horrid guys. In fairness, a lot of times I get into the 1.0Mb range but here in my results from speakeasy.
I'm in Bowling Green, Ky on At&t
Last Result: Download Speed: 215 kbps (26.9 KB/sec transfer rate) Upload Speed: 781 kbps (97.6 KB/sec transfer rate)

Dang. Yea the speeds I mentioned were T-Mobile's, and it seems they don't have 3G in Bowling Green. AT&T seems to, though its not that big of 3g coverage.

Sounds like UTMS (3G), not HSPA (3.5G). What's the fastest speed you've ever gotten?
UTMS supports up to 2 Mbit/s data transfer rates, although typical users can expect performance of around 64 kbit/s in a heavily loaded real-world system.
And on top of that, looks like Bowling Green has a fairly tight radius around the city that's "Mobile Broadband", but doesn't say if it's UTMS, HSDPA, or HSPA.

Denver here. I get on average 1-1.5 down and 200-500 up. I work on the west side of town and live on the east. Doesnt vary from one side to the other. I try to stay on wifi whenever possible
Yaaa. A few days ago my phone was getting speeds of 400-600 kbps and now all this yesterday and morning has been getting 700-1100 kbps download speeds pretty solid
Share your speeds

I'm using 4.0.4 deodexed. Also has a few speed tweaks installed
I have 3G Turbocharger along with a max tweak from the 3G/4G Optimizer app from the market. I just did a test a few min ago to test how it is at a prime day time (noon) and I get 650+ kbps as before I would struggle with 300. Also this is sprint/boost mobile speeds and are pretty decent

I've been using this phone since January and never once has it crossed 50 Mbps in download speeds or speed tests. My home wifi is 60 Mbps which my laptop speed tests checkout but my mobiles download speed tops out at 40+. It's never touched 50 either. Any solution? My wifi is running at 2.5GHz. I'm not planning to root my device until the warranty is over.
Try be closer to your router or modem and if the problem still persist, head to developer setting (not sure if stock rom has this or not) and find a setting that mention improve wifi speed. If it is not there then I think only on custom rom has it.

I have a general question on Wifi connection. pls share your thoughts on this.
I have a 40 mbps connection in my room. pls says that any of below 2 conditions makes any difference.?
4 mobile phones coneected to 2.4 GHz in a same room (40 mbps fibernet plan).
2 mobiles connected to 2.4 Ghz and 2 mobiles connected to 5 Ghz of same router (40 mbps fibernet plan).
does condition 2 makes any difference?
