I have the same speed at home (hoping to upgrade soon!) and I don't get slow connections on my Tab, unless everything is slow, including my i7.
Please give more details..
Which browser are you using?
Any other application running in the background apart from the browser? (esp those that use wifi connections too)
Any other detail you "suspect" affects the broswing experience.

Agreed, I have a fibre optic broadband and get practically the same wireless connection speed that my laptop receives.
As stated above, more details needed, including router and other settings.

Even on my 8mb home internet (speedtest.net reports 6mb) the speeds are identical to my laptop. Try changing channel

At home around 35Mbps download and 7Mbps upload and yes, that is with BT Infinity.

I'm using mTorrent Lite for when im connected to WiFi. Works great. Obviously not suggested when on 3G.
what about something like PeerGuardian/equivelant to go along with it?
I'm using mtorrent as well but only getting 1mb sec load speed. I have 4 meg DSL.. shouldn't it be at 400k a sec?
In the same vein, has anyone seen a usable Usenet app?

I'm trying to use mtorrent but every time I try to add a torrent, nothing happens. It keeps saying to add a torrent. How is everyone else using mtorrent.

I use NewzDroid and it does exactly what I expected it to. They also make the software Unrar and Unrar Pro... it would be really nice if they would just integrate the applications together though.
I see that there is now another offering on the Market called Droid NewzLeecher (which appears to have some pretty bad reviews)
The app that I use is ttorrent and I love it. I have tried all of them and this one is by far the best. I get speeds on average of 250kb/s but that might be due to the speed of my wifi connection.

I don't have a Xoom, but on my Nexus One I use the free uTorrent remote app. This is not torrenting on the phone, it torrents to my home computer running uTorrent. However, the app allows you to download the files from your home computer once they are completed. It is a very clean app and works great on my phone, so if it runs on the Xoom and that way of doing things works for you, it might be a great solution.
I'm aBTC on my desire. Give it a go.
swarm is one of the best clients i've seen, but it is $5.

WiFi direct isn't working on any of our custom Roms, as far as I know. However, a good substitute is Software Data Cable https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.damiapp.softdatacable, it works like WiFi direct. You'll need to install this on both devices, this app can also transfer files between your Android and PC.

i meant, how do you use it, is it by qr code or ip address?
FTP. It works similar to WiFi direct and Bluetooth. 1 device starts a share network using its own WiFi hotspot, the other picks up the hotspot and joins the network. Then you get a browser to share files at good speed.
This does not use your data. If you're worried about it, you can turn off your mobile network and try it.

It might be something with your phone, if that happened to me I would just wipe data and cache and see if it work afterwards...
Speed test my ass... have you guys an idea how the internet works???

Now you'll see how fast you are downloading - constantly in real time
You'll know now if the server is just too slow for the connection
