My GS3 wifi can't keep up with my internet

I have 75mbps FiOS, this is using 5Ghz N with 40Hz width
Anybody seen faster speeds?

from my 35Mbps FIOS

Do u have any idea how fast that is for phone hardware. Never seen a phone test that fast.

I know I was half joking. It is quite nuts that the phone can handle that speed. I love it.

I wish I had those net speeds period... East Tennessee has a ways to go for net service... :-(

I do not think mine keeps up either.

The poor wifi speeds are fairly well documented in the AnandTech review.
It's interesting that the OneX / EvoLTE does better with the same chipset.

Try 20mhz channel and see if it changes. Also, speed test is not 100% accurate with connections over 20mbit according to them.
The results you posted seem to be within the expected range. What n router are you using? Not all n equipment is as fast as you think(well documented). What about channel saturation? Anyone else nearby using the same channels? Channel space is shared media. Many factors involved.
I would be satisfied with your results. Considering it is a phone, has ddr2 mem, a limited bus speed and width(compared to a pc), and probably a slower WiFi adapter than a pc, I wouldn't worry.

So I`m guessing your in a 2G/EDGE area or GPRS, There is NO way to get better speed unless you use wifi

bhai,
there have beenmany tweaks .. but none of them actually INCREASE the speed ,
just check if your phone is gprs Class 12 capable ..
if yes u might get a speed of more than 100kbps(depends on the signal strength).

LK
just check your gprs and edge version and also try to get a better signal at your phone.

Are you sure your area have 3G coverage and above ? You can try to call your provider for support. By the way have you tried to edit the buildprop file ?

you may need to move

I think there is no way to increase your internet speed unless your area has 3G or LTE signal.

Hello,
If you simply browse page, you may try to use a compressor proxy to reduce download time.
Some browser may provides this automatically (I know chrome beta does, but it's not available for your phone), and it will only work if server don't already compress data.

Hello,
https://developers.google.com/chrome/mobile/docs/data-compression
NOTE that I really don't like this because a lot of server already compress data so that going through the proxy will only slow things down.

Ok.. Thx

Antenna to increase speed
You could use an antenna (should your phone support it) to increase signal strength and thus speed. I have used 900mhz Yagi antennas to increase range. Of course, when already in reception the download speed is increased.

hotspot using LTE data?

can someone please link me to the URL that makes the nexus 4 on LTE share LTE using hotspot, i can hotspot but it will only work on GSM mode(speeds are really slow if its NON LTE speeds), if i try it on LTE mode , the device can connect to my nex4 hotspot but it won't get any internet
im on the Rogers network in canada
thanks

The Nexus 4 does not really truly support LTE so this is one of the issues, unfortunately there is no application to do such thing.
Have you switched to a 4G plan?

i have LTE on my nexus 4 using the hybrid .33 modem flash, i want to get LTE speeds via Hotspot sharing, but can't, it only connects when i have 3g or H (GSM auto PRL)
my device ( nex7 tablet, can connect to the hotspot but it won't get internet) when im on LTE(nex 4 lte mode) rogers apn ltemobile.apn

Works fine with Bell LTE
For what its worth, my Nexus 4 with 4.3 and the .33/.84 hybrid modem works fine with the hotspot feature and the phone operating on LTE. I'm on Virgin Mobile Canada (Bell Canada) so I think more of a carrier specific limitation.

U8800 not support T mobile 3G in US?

I just sign an unlimited data plan with T mobile. Unfortunately, my U8800 can not connect to the 3G network. My friend's iphone 4s, though, can connect to the 3G. Is there anyone who can figure out why it is so?
Thx

I don't see band 20 on either model
If it matters then a different phone, e.g. the OnePlusX is a near equivalent in some ways 5", SD slot it had band 20 in the UK model, but its not sold any longer.
