Better speeds while tethering

Today i was looking all over for the best tethering app that could at least let me watch youtube with out freezing to day i used wireless tether cm7 hotspot nothing gave me anything over 1 mb down (used speed test.net app) so i went to google andriod wifi tehter project under downloads and downloaded the experimental v3pre 12 apk and the speed differ from 2-3mb and .90 up( uploads speed where always the same nomatter what app i used) im using sprint lover rom stock kernal if anyone has anything better please let me know. Also mane factor under setting in the app go to change device profile and use samsung epic 4g . auto or htc evo are slower didnt try all, but these three, let me know if any of phones are better to choose from thanxz.

First, run a speed test from your phone. If you are only getting 2-3 mbps on your phone, you won't get any faster than that tethering

i get 9-10mb down and 1 mb capp speeds device tethering to is 2-4mb down 1 up

Veno

This thread is to showcase before and after speed increase/decrease that you may get from using either one of the Kernels that have this implemented..
I request you do the following..
1: State your Rom
2: State your Kernel
3: State your before speed
4: program used to verify speed
This thread is not a Q&A thread..
It is also not a thread about which is the best Kernel to use..
It is a thread that the developers can refer to to get an idea whether it is worth while to implement "Veno" and or any other Wireless coding to help improve input & output of our devices and the wireless chips/programming that supports them..
I will quote ricardopvz.. if he does not mind.. (Ricardo.. PM me if you have a problem with this)
Wifi is definitely better with test16. Where I had 36Mbps, now I have 54Mbps.
Page loading may be a little faster, but needs some more testing.

Using the same application for testing internet speed and benchmark for result consistency... like quadrant & speedtest.net..
Here is the result after veno:
Megatron v 1.0.4 @ 1600mhz
Guevor test16 - veno
Speedtest.net
download - 1986kbps
upload - 372kbps
Quadrant score - 4069
will post shortly after flashing other kernels...

AOKP Build 33
1.504mhz - 216mhz - Interactive
Test16 kernel
SIO (M.S) read ahead 2048kb
SD read ahead 1024kb
Dalvik byte code false build.prop tweaks etc
wifi bluetooth etc untouched
Before veno and after veno no difference at all in fact in most speed tests veno got slightly less but then seemed a little quicker in other respects eg browsing at times so the tests did not help me make a definative decision.
I really don't know what to think on this but I would like to see more improvements like this and see our kernels and all round speed improve
Sorry in advance for any spelling mistakes AOKP still has a borked autocorrect and my spelling lacks in every respect lol

As you can see time and server can have an influence on the results, so you can't just do one measurement before and one after to make a conclusion.

Yes, I am having this thought too..
Was going though test programs yesterday..
At this stage "ping" can only be the true medium you can test this.
Or using a samba drive attached to your WiFi network and download upload the same file and different kernel settings using a monitor program to get average speeds..
As using results from multi pads connected to the internet brings too many variables into the data..
i.e..users downstream internet speed once it leaves the local network..
What we really want is "local" WiFi to pad increases.. as its the tweaking of this that will allow for incremental increases (hopefully) of the user experience in the downstream leg of the connection.

4.2.2 roms and 5ghz 300mbit connections

Am I the only one that can't connect my N10 @ 300mbit on 5ghz with the newer ROMs (Paranoid Android excluded)? I've tried Liquid, Carbon, PAC, etc - Paranoid is the only build with support. All others max out at 130. 300mbit is important if streaming from the NAS (main purpose of my tablet). Hopefully some of the devs will read this. I have an Asus rtn-66u. Tried different (lower channels), channel width, legacy/n only, you name it. PA passes with flying colors - help?

The actual speed is no where near 300 mbps anyway so it shouldn't matter. I haven't seen the Nexus 10 able to pull more than a stable 40~ mbps even if you get within 5 feet and line of sight of the router with your hands out of the way and the antennae of both devices lined up with each other. The wifi in these tablets is just that bad.
A standard compressed 1080p movie is usually a total of 20 mbps anyway, and a full bluray version is normally 30 mbps of data I think.

The link speed should still be able to be reported as 300 if it is using both antenna? I'm just wondering if something was overlooked on these other roms that PA gets right. I guess I could compare real world ftp vs the seperate ROMs and report back.
OK. Carbon ROM @130mbit on 5ghz 500mb file, max ftp 6100Kb/sec.
PA @ 300mbit 5ghz same 500mb file, ftp was 7200Kb/sec. Just one test, should be done at least seven times, but 1Mb/sec is a difference. Back with PA.

The main question is does it make that big of difference? I mean I can stream the 1440p timescapes video over my 2.4 wireless n router at 65mbit and it looks just as great as if it was on the tablet itself...
At 130 you should be able to do about anything...
I dont know Mabey I just don't understand...

Do you stream using ftp or dnla/smb? Wish I could figure out NFS to get it working.
Either way, where did the 300mbit go?

My Nexus connects on the 5 GHz band just fine, wifi shows 270 Mbps link speed, and a quick test I just did got me 12.200 kbps in download (this is with an emule client also running on the same line).
Rom is latest MrRobinson's AOKP PUB with KTManta kernel.

Tried Mr Robinson's aroma aokp with ktmanta kernel. Wifi performance was pretty much half (maxed at 3000Kbytes/sec). Connection was reported as 130mbit. What channel settings are you using on your router?
Flashed back to PA and I'm back to 7000Kbytes+.

It's on auto; right now using channel 44.
I must say wifi analyzer only shows my access point, so there are probably no collisions, and the router is about a meter from me (but with two monitors in the line of sight).

What channel width? 20, 20/40, or 40? Back on AOKP trying every combination.
Hard for me to believe your tablet is reporting 270. Picture or it didn't happen j/k.

My router does not have such a setting, only "up to 54 Mbps", "up to 130 Mbps" and "up to 300 Mbps".
But looking at 802.11n specs I would imagine that means it is using a channel width of 40.

Well, thanks for trying to to help. Tried the lower channels. Even tried turning encryption off (open system). 130 seems to be the ceiling for me on these other ROMs. I really liked the feel of Robinson's AOKP.

Here you are, a screenshot showing my wifi connection, and the speed test.
It's in Spanish, but I guess you will be able to understand it.

Thanks for the info.
Just don't understand why stock and PA seem to function differently.

*workaround* When I am on USA region WiFi, 5ghz only reaches 130mbit. When I "lie" and tell the ROM I am in Brazil (lol) , I can obtain the full 300 Mbit connection. Maybe you can pass this onto the other devs. Must be a bug.

Pardon me, but how do I change the country setting ?

Try a different kernel. franco.Kernel specifically has a newer WiFi driver which may or may not help out with speeds.
I have a NETGEAR R6200 (like 800mbit or something advertised speeds over some non-standardized kind of WiFi lol). Nexus 10 is only reporting 162mbit when connected over 5GHz, but I'm using rasbeanhjelly + Trinity (TX34).

Slow Wi-Fi performance

Hey guys, I'm having issues with the Wi-Fi performance on my 910G. I'm on 5.1.1 and using emotion kernnel v24 beta, when watching YouTube videos, updating apps and what not, my download speed is slow. But this happens most of the time, sometimes I'll get bursts of full speed. Does anyone else experience bad Wi-Fi performance? I noticed when I tried the 6.0.1 rom the Wi-Fi performance was better.
And no, it's not my ISP or my router, as it works perfectly fine on every other device. Tried 2.4GHz and 5GHz, no real difference.
To be honest, I think the Wi-Fi driver goes to sleep when it's not being fully utilized, and seems to get stuck, is there a module update for the specific Wi-Fi card?
Thanks

Have you run speed test.net app to see what your speed is? How many users on your router? Have you analyzed which channels you are on versus your neighbors for interference? Start at all those first.

Yes, it's not an issue with my network and it is not interference, as I live on a 2.5 acre block of land. When I speedtest it will reach the full speed 10/1mbps, and if I quickly switch into YouTube it will load quickly, but after a bit it just stalls again. There has to be some sort of driver/module issue with it.

Top Download Speed on Mobile Data

Dear All,
I have seen that out device gives less speed as compared to other devices (e.g MI and Iphones). Can you please comment with top speed you have got on mobile data and also ROM details.

I have seen Iphone give 7 Mbps,
MI phones giving 3 Mbps
And our device (Arrow PIE) 1.5 Mbps on same network (Jio)

I saw 20 megabyte / second at good signal. Now i'm using miui but not that good for network' speed.

On which ROM did you get 20 Mbps?

My high speed download was 64 mbps on mobile data.

My speed is about 10MP/s

Jaguar ROM latest and Jio
Today the speed

Vodafone on jaguar

Device :- Z2 Plus 4GB
Baseband/firmware :- 1.70 from Zui 4.0.xxx
ROM :- Any Custom ROM (Oreo or Pie)
Network :- Reliance Jio 4G (India)
Location :- Kolkata and tested other places too..
Now this is very subjective as we all know with network performance and load.
But Z2 Plus isn't slow in any sense compare to other phones when it comes to LTE performance.
Thanks..

I have or I posted screenshot from one particular ROM doesn't mean that it's the fastest.
I have seen similar if not better results with most of the ROMs that I have tried.
So namely,
Oreo :- AEX/PE/AiCP.. Few others, I have forgotten..
Pie :- AEX/PixysOS(present setup)
For my setup and test locations, ROM or kernel never mattered. They all performed similar. Network strength, and load in network are the main factors for me to see the different speed. It's all on backend hardware and their capabilities. If network is fast enough, if testing server is fast enough, Z2 Plus does hit some insane speeds.
Only difference for internet performance that I cry on is with 2.4GHz WiFi performance since many ROMs for some reason come with link limited to 72mbps where as some are capable of hitting full 150mbps link.
We have detailed discussion on this if you remember regarding 2.4GHz channel bonding and root solutions for force enabling it on those certain restricted ROMs..
I have few insane 5.8GHz speed test results but unfortunately I am still searching for them. Took them on a night shift at office when we removed all speed restrictions for fun.. lol..

I meant to ask what rom is this.. coz looking for rom change .
May be will go back to crdroid oreo
I am aware that most roms only differ in ui and the ux developed by Devs and the sources.. everything else is same behind the scene.. coz all is android.. and hardware being same as well..
Small incident .. at my place I get maximum 30-40kbps.. sometime in evening can't even open XDA .. internet is soo slow.. 4G JiO.. but this weekend I was getting 3.5-4 and even 5 Mbps ... So I know it's not the rom .
Just FYi, syberia supports 150 mbps

@sanjay.2704
I am presently with PixysOS. You may not like it due to the lack of customisation but for me, it's good enough to configure the phone just the way I want it.
Over-all excellent performance or battery backup.

I got this with msm xtended

In my college I have a 802.11n standard network wifi, I usually get around 120-130 mbps.
While on jio I get atmost 1 mbps without carrier aggression, but if my network switches to carrier aggression then sppeds are way higher(depends on location atleast 5mbps to even 30+mbps)

Mobile network data speeds are really subjective of multiple factors.. Mainly the location. Since parameters effecting the performance and speed at every location is bit different.
For example in my home, network of most of the service providers are really strong. My primary network Jio performs really great even within indoor locations. Crossing 70+ mbps regularly at night hours.
Sadly if I walk up just 800m to our local club and Jio crawls and struggle to even touch 1 mbps !! Usually stays at around that 300/500kbps mark there.. Did multiple complains from multiple users but Reliance always admits their inability to fix due to so called high demand and excess number of users at that given location.
