3G speeds in PHILLY.. COMPLAIN TO T_MOBILE! A tower is down!It's not Froyo causing it

Getting like 15kB/sec download and 70kB/sec upload
Wth?
Real slow anyone else get this?
T-Mob USA btw.. Server in Philadelphia

nope i got 2.15 mb/ps download and 1.31 mb/ps upload
127 ms in new york
but with the old radio i would get 3mb/s and 2mb/s

I noticed today my 3G seemed a tad slower. My speed tests are maybe 20% slower than usual. I got Tmo in Sacramento.

well, before my 3g connection totally conked (i'm connected, but no data is being transferred at all.... happened after I installed adfree) I was getting terrible data rates, just like yours... I actually got up to 33k ish on the download tho... i'm in the Chicago area. Usually I can get around 1-1.5M in my area.
not to kang your thread, but any chance adfree somehow hosed me? if i turn on wifi, i can connect just fine... so it makes me think adfree was just a coincidence because I would think it would affect my browsing on wifi too.

Same here . I flashed back to the 32.26.00.24u_4.04.00.03_2. Not a problem you wont brick your phone. My speeds were terrible with the new radio. I"m back up in the 900 kbs now . With the new radio I was averaging a 1/3 of that.

Noone can help me?

yea i noticed that dl speeds are way slower than before... anyone know how to fix that?

What do you need help with? Try a different radio and see if that works for you. About all you can do.

New radio actually improved my speeds for ATT

Did it start immediately after you flashed FroYo or sometime afterwards?

I'm also here in Philadelphia on T-Mobile and am having the exact same issue. It began immediately after flashing. I'm quite frustrated at this point.
My N1 is not rooted. I went from stock 2.1 to stock 2.2.

Im also getting slower speeds here in miami. I kept the stock radio but changed from gsm auto prl to wcdma preffered and my data is close to 20 percent quicker according to speedtest.net app. i tried it over and over again on the smae spot and it was consistent. I went back to gsm auto prl and again my data got slower.

My upload speeds are actually fine. Here are my last few speedtest.net results (all are in kbps from the comcast server in philadelphia):
Down/Up
38/1350
26/1205
43/1406
4/1205
21/1467
I was not having any issues until I made the upgrade this morning to Froyo.

I disabled 3G and am downloading around 190kbps.
Do we need to change the radio? Is Tmobile in Philly having 3G issues? I can't keep my phone as is with such a slow data connection.

Im having the same problem. It started right after I flashed froyo with the new radio. Im on tmob in dallas. Is it only people with tmobile that are having this problem?

For Speedtest, switch the server. Don't use the Miami server. It sux and gives really low speeds... I'm in Miami also and I always thought my speed sucked, i switched the server in speed test and i'm getting 1.1Mbps Down and around 800Kbps Up

Well iam on Sky Broadband so its up to 20mb, but you might think we are paying £10 a month. No, its combined with sky tv and sky talk so its free.
What i want to know is, does anyone else have this? slow web browsing and fast download?
And what is your highest bittorrent speed?

Mines is slower too

Grr... Paying for 8Mp/s
The highest i've ever got from a torrent is about 60kb/s where as MU etc. 110 kb/s
What speeds to you all get from either of these?

i think broadband in england must really suck then!

We're paying for like, 2.5MB/s, but my speeds are in the kB's. Like .5MB/s.

Do they drop your broadband when you take it in for repair?

Do remember most companies say speeds of upto 8mb/s for example, but thats not the download speed. You can atleast half that to get your max download speed.. Its only is they state 8mb/s download that you should expect that sort of speed.
Not to mention that they lie about it.
In my old house I was paying for 8mb/s, and to be fair I did get roughly that...
But where I live now.....
1 bar of 3g signal is faster than my internet.
The shocking thing is, my grandmother gets 50mb/s!!!

Where abouts in north wales?
Llandudno? my uncle gets 150kbps torrent speed there now. He's on talktalk

I've been getting the problem the OP mentioned for the last 3 days.
Sync speed and bRAS profile normal, but crappy speeds (3800 sync, 3000 profile).
Speedtests that come back between 500 and 1000.
BT's own speedtester comes back 500-1000.
Youtube is unwatchable because of all the buffering and downloads are stop/start all the time.
HOWEVER...
Torrents and Usenet are plugging along at max line speed!
Go figure!
I'm in communication with my ISP and they're aware of a pattern of normal sync but slow web speeds up and down the country. They reckon it might be tied in with the BT MSO from the middle of the week in Edinburgh. Around about the time that BT said they got people back online was when the speeds started screwing up. They suggest that maybe BT have bypassed Edinburgh and are using redundant backhaul to shunt off traffic to other nodes (Manchester, Sheffield etc). The upshot is that those nodes suffer a degradation of service for all connected to them on 20CN products (like me).
Or I could have a unique problem on my line that BT don't consider a fault because my Usenet is full speed!
As for N.Wales... unless you're in the middle of a town, good luck with getting decent speeds.

UK doesn't really have broadband.
Outside a few major city centres UK doesn't have broadband as most developed countries understand it. I will just give a few facts but avoid drawing conclusions or expressing opinions so as to avoid libelling BT: A few years ago I left central London to live in the countryside. Went from 20 MB cable to 1.5 MB ADSL. Was with O2 Access because my local exchange was still under the monopoly control of BT and O2 could not (would not?) install broadband equipment in the BT exchange even though the Gov claims it should be "Unbundled". My speeds went down in steps of approx 128kb until it became a constant 128kb (yes comparable to the old dial-up!). I fought with O2, BT and local Politicians over this because the copper wires did not change nor did my equipment. Finally I gave in and got my MAC number from O2 to change over to BT in the hope that having to fight with only one corporation would be easier. On the day I phoned BT to sign up (The transfer had not happened) my speed went straight up to 1.5 MB. Those are the facts if we had a monopoly comission I am sure they would be interested. You may draw your own conclusions regarding UK Broadband.

Speedtest Download and Upload Results

What are most of you getting in terms of your 3G and 4GLTE service. I get horrible rates such as 100kbps down and 250kbps up with 3G, and then mediocre rates like 2mbps and 1mbps with LTE. To be fair, I do have horrible service inside the dorms at my school, and my speeds are generally better outside with better reception. I'm just trying to figure out whether or not its my hardwares fault, or my softwares fault.

my best 3g test so far was .74mbps down / .23mbps up with a 131ms ping
and my best 4g test was 14.39mbps down / 2.53mbps up with a 67ms ping

3G 1.25 Mbps down / 0.56 Mbps up with a 104ms ping
4G 25.49 Mbps down / 3.95 Mbps up with a 53ms ping

just ran a test, 25mb down, 6mb up, 67ms.
I don't think many people are on it right now.

Those speeds arent possible... especially the upload. What did you do to measure it? upload is capped around 6.

Sounds like everyone is getting some awesome results! I tried a couple more tests with 3G outside and the best I got was 200kbps down and around 150kbps. How do I figure out whether or not it's hardware in the phone, or possibly just crappy network service on my end?

in Newark, De (Uni of Delaware campus) I was getting 18-ish mbits down, and 1.5mbits up. Ill post screenshot monday.

I haven't been getting any speeds like these, it's sort of worrying me :/

I typically get 44-48Mbps down and 10-13Mbps up on LTE. 3G is 1-1.4Mbps down and .6-.8 up. Happy with it all

So lets get this done. Rate your ISP.
Post your location, provider and "advertised speed". And how you like/dislike your service.

I think i have heard of them. Is that your only option in Sacramento? I just moved from hollywood and all we could get was time warner. (which was the worst ISP in el paso, tx)

broadstripe in eastside seattle, wa
15 megs down/2 megs up
see below
I have service from a cable company called Broadstripe. I'm in a Seattle suburb, but kind of in the boonies, and they are my only cable option... ludicrous, I know.
and, of course, they're awful. I'm paying for their 'most robust' internet option (15 megs down) and have literally never received advertised speeds. even when the tech came out and hooked me up, the first thing I did was a speed test... < 10 megs down at 10:30 am in the middle of the week, when speeds should theoretically be at their peak. have complained many times and received many worthless 'perks'. if I could change to ANYONE else, I would. even comcast, god forbid. I refuse to go DSL or satellite though.
furthermore, every night after around 5PM, the speeds go from less than advertised to barely usable due to traffic.
I just dropped quite a bit of money on a better modem with a built-in router and am hoping that consolidating everything into one package and having a DOCSIS 3.0 modem might make a difference. we'll see. I'm not expecting much and they're already making things difficult with the switch from their p.o.s. provided modem.. which I fully expected.
wouldn't recommend them and hopefully when I move in march I will have some better options.

according to speed test. I like it. we used to have Verizon, and that sucked. a lot. So I can't complain.

i just did this test and its 6pm when traffic should be at its heaviest. (in sig) ask your provider if they have docsis 3.0. if they do, grab a modem that supports it. quick.

Love it.

Fort Leonard Wood, Missouri
Cable America
15Mbps/2Mbps.
I'm pretty neutral towards my ISP. They have had some problems and were very slow to fix it, but they are better than CenturyLink in my area. Plus I'm in the middle of no where so I can't complain ;p.

33-2600Kbps / 600 Kbps. Last week. Performance was really poor and intermittent. They came out and changed my modem and switched me to PPPoE. Now I get 26xx Kbps / 7xx Kbps. Much happier now. We will see if it lasts.
Btw, The advertised speed is 3360/864 Kbps.

Using the App I've played around with my chromecast location, if I connect it to a 2m HDMI cable and move away I can get the chromecast to 24.83Mbps which is obviously a massive difference, chromecast is always doing HD now instead of flicking between HD and VHS.

Yes. My internet speed is only 5 MB/s-down 0.6 MB/s-up so that doesn't test how my wifi is functioning. Streaming off my local network sometimes requires 30-50 MB/s.

ISP is Comcast with typical down/up on a desktop with OOKLA at 60mbps/5mbps.
Based on others experience are these numbers good?

By default, chromecast will be pluged to TV at rear, wifi signal may be affected by TV.
HDMI extender could help to put chromecast to a right position.
