How come I get so slow speeds when copying a file over WIFI from my desktop computer? I get about 420kb/s and when I check the WIFI connection the signal quality is 70% or higher and connected at Tx 54Mbps / Rx 48Mbps.. Shouldn't I get something like a few Mb/s with that connection??
Using Resco Explorer to access shared folder on desktop computer and copy files btw...
Is it set for best battery? If it is, that's the problem.
No.. Best performance...
Any idea why its only giving me 450ish Kb/s? What SHOULD I be getting with 54Mbps?
The WIFI router is a Zyxel P-320W btw.. It supports 802.11b/g..

if you read specification of your phone you should know this, taken from htc homepage
Up to 7.2 Mbps download speed
Up to 2 Mbps upload speed
so i dont think it matters if you got 54/48Mbps
this is my guess to your issue
someone right me if im wrong here..

Damn.. Thats slow.. Can't even watch XViD's over WIFI..
you might want to enable wireless N through either BSB Tweaks or
Tboy2000's thread...it might help?

7.2 Mbps = HSDPA, 2 Mbps = HSUPA
NOT WiFi
So what is the supported WIFI speeds on the HD2? 802.11b/g is supposed to be alot faster than the ~5 mbits I seem to be getting Or is the network(WIFI/HSDPA etc) controller limited to 7.2mbps be it WIFI or through 3G?
Well, those 7.2mbps and 2.0mbps are probably not wireless specifications as they stand for HSDPA connection. Wireless speeds are specified by 802.11 standards, e.g. 802.11a supports up to 2mbps bandwidth, 802.11b up top 11mbps and 802.11g 54mbps. so, these should be the speedlimits for HD2. I have seen that it is possible to enable 802.11n for HD2 but i havent tryed it out yet as I have difficulties using wireless with my HD2 even with the slow speeds.
no matter where I try to use wifi, it works for ~30secs and after that the phone can't find any wireless networks, sometimes even hangs. After waiting for about 1 minute, it finds wifi again and same scenario happens again and again. It hasn't worked right from the moment I took it out of the box. should return it probably but before that, maybe someone has had same problem and knows what the reason is for that?
/edit: topic must be: 802.11.g
hi there,
got my HD2 (stock vodafone rom) on friday and until now i am very statisfied, everything set up to my needs etc.
Today i wanted to stream videos from my win7-pc to the HD2. Installed TCPMP and Resco Explorer. Everything works fine except for the buffer-lags. i experimented with the buffer settings A LOT but nothing worked out. then i wanted to copy a movie to my HD2 and realized the speed in Resco: 39.2 Kb/s (no typo)
Copying to phone memory or SD-Card is the same.
My router (Fritzbox 7170) tells me that my HD2 is connected with 54MBit/s.
I even installed the 802.11.n CAB though my router doesnt support this speed. didnt work out either.
any help plz?
excuse my english - im from europe.
Thanks in advance

/EDIT: problem solved. wifi energy plan was set to battery life... works with 700+Kb/s set to performance.
keep up the good work in here
No wonder!
Gah!! I thought my hd2 wifi router was doomed to be slow at no more than 40kb/sec ! I thought i over heated it up and caused it to be permanently slow. I went nuts jumping from rom to rom, radio to radio hoping to get the full internet speed,...until you post showed up! (No, 'Search' didnt help me out much this time, had to browse through 26 pages of irrelevant post)
Now im gonna try to "Best performance" and see if it makes any difference.
Right Sorry for posting here but I can not make a Thread :S
Ok I tested my HD2 on a few speed test sites and then tested on the same site my laptop.
right on
broadbandspeedchecker.co.uk
Laptop: 15000 kbps Download
720 kbps Upload
HD2 Apparently: 20000 kbps Download
AND 40000 kbps Upload (WTF)
and then I was like ok lets try another site
broadband.talktalk.co.uk/products/broadband-guide/broadband-speed-test
Laptop: 16000 kbps Download
720 kbps Upload
HD2: 22000 kbps Download
44000 kbps Upload
Right, why does my phone get such a massive upload ? or is this some sort of a bug or false reading
P.S.
The HD2 is connected to the same WiFi as the laptop as well as the 3G.
"The Internet transfer/download speed of my laptop via 3g ith my hd2 as the wifi router " = 40kb/sec, which is Junk, btw.
"The Internet transfer/download speed of my laptop with my 3g usb modem" = 300 - 600kb/sec which is the speed I wished my connection was, via the same 3g connection but using the hd2 as the wifi. And I hope that changing the "Power mode" of the hd2 wifi to "Best performance" (thanks for the OP for pointing it out) , i could reach the speeds as my 3b usb modem. Gonna do a bit of testing 1st...
================
Rom - Miri dinik v17.0
radio - 2.11.50.20
I get about the same download with wifi and 3G. Normal? EDIT: Turning it to Performance mode tripled my speed via WiFi.
Munto: What browser on the HD2 are you using?
I'm using Skyfire
Yeh just tested with opera 10 and now the speeds are close the the PC's results.
I guess Skyfire is full of BS.

Ah, Skyfire (and Opera Mini 5) uses server-side rendering so you won't get an accurate result. Skyfire's server downloads the pages, applies compression magic, and sends it to you, so the result is skewed by their probably ultra-fast servers. I think Opera 9.7 works the best for speed tests.
The wifi works and all, but I'm only capping at 40 kb/s, and I know its not my router, my laptops run find on it. I even hosted a simple network file just in case it still only capped at 40kb/s, any fixes? Thanks in advance
Hey guys, I'm relatively new to torrenting and I figured since this community is so great that I would run it by you guys first.
Speedtest says that my download speed is approximately 8mb/s. Why are my Utorrent download speeds so slow then? I'm only getting about 2mb/s download speeds.
There are plenty of seeders as well so I don't think that is the problem.
Could be throttling from your ISP, or it could be that you just aren't getting the same speeds over the ports uT is using. Or maybe all your seeds are slow. Could be any number of things.
8 mbit is your speedtest speed, utorrent is telling you your download speed as mbyte. they are 2 different ways of saying the same speed but they are not equal
example: speedtest tells me 9.56mbps I can download at 1226kBps or 1.2mBps

I'm downloading Dexter Season 5 which is in the top 100 torrents in Pirate Bay so i don't think that it is a problem with the seeds. Any way to check the other things though such as throttling from my ISP? I read that my ISP does in fact throttle so is there any way to get around this?

use an encrypted vpn, or a speedbox. I have comcast and they are notorious for throttling, but I use btguard so I don't get throttled, and nobody can track me

I'm going to look into setting all of this up. Would you mind helping me out? Thanks for your help.
yeah, pm me
Are you doing this through your phone (only reason I ask is because, well, it's here)? If so, your ping times are probably nowhere near fast enough to get you to consistently hit that 8 mbps speed.
If you've got multiple computers, here's a nifty trick I found this past weekend to get around some ISP's (namely, Comcast) throttling:
1) On both computers, install uTorrent 3.0 Alpha.
2) Under Preferences>BitTorrent set outbound encryption to forced, and un-check "Allow incoming legacy connections", under Basic BitTorrent Features, make sure everything except "Limit local peer bandwidth" is checked.
3) Confirm your router supports UPnP, and check Preferences>Connection "Enable UPnP port mapping", "Enable NAT-PMP port mapping", "Randomize port each start", and "Add Windows Firewall exception"
3a) If you have a firewall on your computer like ESET Smart Security, make sure to create an exception for all inbound and outbound TCP and UDP connections to/from utorrent.exe.
4) Load the same torrent file in both computers' uTorrent list. Under Peers, right-click and select "add peer", and enter the LAN IP address and port (you can get the port from Preferences>Connection>Listening Port) of the other computer.
Now, each computer will download the torrent and (hopefully) go after different pieces of the torrent simultaneously, then share over the LAN what each one has gotten. Enabling Local Peer Discovery will also find a bunch of peers from your ISP, since cable networks act like giant WAN-addressable LANs. (If you want an example, hook up your computer directly to your cable modem's ethernet port, and open up Wireshark. You'll see a ton of broadcasts from people's LANs, like mDNS and ARP requests. You could even do some ARP poisoning and sniff everyone's traffic in your neighborhood...)
Thanks for everyones comments and suggestions! Weirdly enough, I got it working great now and just by uninstalling and reinstalling as to restore the default settings in Utorrent 2.2.
One thing that peaks my curiousity however, earlier when I was trying to leach off my friends 8mb/s download speed internet I was only achieving the 2mb/s or so. When I got home to my house, I was getting about 2.5mb/s and the internet package that we have is supposed to only allow for 1mb/s!
I stopped all downloads and went onto speedtest.net and I did indeed register at ~2.7mb/s download and 1.1mb/s upload. I don't understand how this is possible considering last week I consistently was only getting 1mb/s and even called my cable company and they confirmed that was what I was paying for. Doesn't make any sense but I'm definitely not complaining
I get about 15 mbps down and about 1mbps up on speedtest.net. When I download a movie I see about 2mbps down and about 90kbps max. Whats everyones upload? Thats what really matters.

I found a torrent app for Android that actually works. I have tried several but tTorrent is the only one I have found that really works. They have a free lite version that has a download speed cap but I paid for the full which was 2 something.

Do what you want cause a pirate is free! You are a pirate! lets make a sing along!

Maybe there should be a disclaimer in the op lol
Limit your global upload speed to 25kb/s, walk away for 10 mins. Bam, max speed.
If that doesn't work, the torrent you want probably doesn't have enough seeds close by to you with good upload.

Hey since you guys are talking about torrents, here is a off topic question if you dont mind. Do you all use torrents for music or something else? PM if you like thanks!
I use torrents for everything...music, movies, software, everything. But, I have on offshore FTP so the US goverment can kiss my Arse!!

Is anyone else getting this problem with internet explorer? Web pages takes forever to load whereas the stock browser on android was much faster. Do you guys have any suggestion on how to fix this, since i have tested the speed at multiple places and still getting the same slow result.
Actually,I found it faster.

I thought the internet speeds were very close to what I had on Android

Thats weird i did all the steps correctly using the guides i dont know its so slow... did you guys do anything special on your phone?

I'm with the same problem...
Do you gave 3G disabled, maybe Without 3G web pages would surely be a pain to use.
For me personally IE works like a charm. If this thing would have a password manager it would be my personal favourite mobile browser.

Oh forgot to mention that i dont have a data plan, use mainly wifi for my internet needs
Navigon downloaded yesterday some 400 MB of maps through my home WiFi and it took no more than 5 min. As i'm on 12 Mbit ADSL I guess WiFi speed is more than OK on WP7.
Never tried IE Mobile through WiFi cause I'm on unlimited data and it makes no sense to use WiFi.

After upgrading from a 1GB card to an 8GB card I have also a very slow internet connection.
I tried to download maps for Navigon and failed because less storage space.
After changing to an other 8GB µSD card (do a software hardreset & reconfigure my device) I mentioned that syncspeed & downloads are very slow (ethernet & WiFi).
The download of Navigon maps takes aprox. 6 hours. :-( ==> (8Mbit Internet connection)
mobile HSDPA connection seems ok.
speed was awesome withouth sd card for me, with sd card the phone seems to be very slow overall
