Tilt/Kaiser mobile speed test resulted 500kbit/s today on T-Mobile EDGE

Did T Mobile just roll out their 3G network?
Today I did a mobile speed test on my Tilt. I usually get 70kbit/s, last tested two month ago. And today is just amazing, my Tilt scored average 400-500kbit/s, and the highest I've got is a burst of 1000kbit/s.
It shows EDGE on my network signal bar, don't know what is going on. And I have my wifi turned off.
Tested on both Opera Mobile and Pocket IE, same consistent results, T Mobile's EDGE is never this fast before.

What ROM / Radio are you using?

Sleuth 3.0 with the included radio in that rom, by far the fastest and most stable Rom I've tried.

I have not bothered to test speeds, but I did a side beside comparison between my Kaiser on T-mobile USA and an Iphone on AT&T and the Kaiser was much faster.
Whatever that means. . .

I think so.
I got my device in January and this week i've been consistantly getting an HSDPA signal for the first time ever (Edinburgh).
Prior to this week, the only time I had ever received an HSDPA signal was when waiting for a train in London Euston.
Shame i'm only getting 160KBit atm but it's better than what I was getting before.

lifanus, where are you located? If you're in the US, then YES, tmo has just begin launching their 3g network. It's already up and running in NYC, and will be in a bunch more cities by the end of the summer. However, the tilt supposedly can't get the tmo-US 3g 1700mhz band.
I live in the boston area and my phone has been jumping over to 3g and H periodically, albeit intermittent. It's a sign of good things to come.
I've been with Tmo for years, and I've always loved their plans, service, and their pricing structure. I'm just glad they're going to offer services that will rival their competitors! :-D

Hi Ingentics,
I live close to Dallas, TX, USA (Denton)
I've tested the speed this morning again and the speed apprently dropped to normal 150kbits/s. I guess that the 500kbits/s to 1000kbits/s speed I was getting is late at night when not many people's using their data services. Because I got the results around 2am...

hi lifanus
I live in irving tx, i am not getting any 3G at all. i am running hyperdragon iii with the included radio. and i got the 5.99 plan. do you also the 5.99 plan?

WXC,
No, i'm actually using the T-Mobile total internet w/hotspot plan (internet2.voicestream.com instead of wap+proxy network).
Here is a screenshot of the speed I got late night yesterday.

Could be compression, especially if you have a proxy enabled!

can anyone else get the kind of speed as lifanus on tmobile in the dallas area? if so which rom /radio / plan you are using? I am only getting 75kbits/sec

Speed tests with opera are never accurate due to the way they compress and send information to the phone... pie is unfortunatly the only way to get an "accurate" speed test.
And also can't get tmobile 3g without the 1700 band

Broadband Speed: Whats going on?

Hey ive noticed that my torrent download speed has gone up to 225kbps which you might think is slow.
But web browsing has gone slower
What the heck?

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.

4G Tether Results: Is Wifi capped? USB is better. Gaming!

Hey well wanted to report my results from last night. Needless to say I am unhappy with "4g" and tethering. Least in VA T-Mobile.
Ok Tablet speedtest.net results.
1.5Mbit DL / 0.5~1.1Mbit UL (Sounds ok not too bad compared to my G1 on 3g which was 400 kbps)
Now here is where it goes to hell.
Wifi Tether then using speedtest.net on my PC
0.5 Mbit DL / 0.2~0.4 Mbit UL Ping 600+ to test server. Lag on video gaming like Team Fortress 2 was horrible... 500~1000ms ping to server.
I said hell with that tried USB tether. CONSIDERABLE performance increase!
1.0 Mbit DL / 0.5 Mbit UL Ping 165 to test server.
Team fortress 2 kept me at about 150~185 ms ping. Which didnt stutter too much, I was able to play smoothly online, Couldnt dogfight close and personal as well since I was a lil lagged behind but it is playable enough to perform respectably. =)
Now this is using the built in android 2.2 tether on the DS7. I do not know if there are better apps or rooted apps that would increase performance of tethering? Anyone know? It seems rather fishy that a wifi tether would drop in bandwitdh SOOOOO much on a high end system setup.
Also another note. USB tethering, does not seem to drain the battery! I had it fully charged and during my entire night of TF2ing, it stayed fully charged! NICE! =)
Test results was from Virginia Beach, VA, connecting to Washington DC speedtest.net
Anyone have some performance or tricks to get better bandwitdh results? =)

You know. Everyone else saying what I get is rather slow... for 4G. Maybe just cause it rolled out here? Its slow? What State are you in that gets 5m? And it is with t-mobile right?

Rogers Ottawa LTE speeds

I'm in Ottawa and my speeds are a little wacky. The first night I had LTE service I hit 40mbps, bit now its steady around 16-18 or so.
Should i expect my most recent tests or should i be looking for higher than that?

Were in Ottawa are you? Im in Kanata and have yet to see lte speeds. im in an ongoing battle with rogers to get lte here. they told me were there towers were in Kanata i went there and nada. i know hunt club and merivale is a strong signal as is baseline and woodroff were their flagship store is. I have gotten decent speeds here and there but i dont believe there network is even half functional. i bought my phone in Toronto in oct and the lte speeds were pretty consistent and coverage was fairly accurate in terms of their coverage map.
First they said my device was defective even though it worked fine in Toronto. So i bought a sierra wireless lte modem and had the same results to prove to them it wasnt a device issue. then i drove to there towers with google maps on my screen to show them my position and the fact that my phone was in edge and sometime 3g at best and emailed rogers tech support pics as well.
There supposed to send a tech out again tomorow but at this point im not very optimistic.
As you can see in the pic when lte works its great the speeds there are from toronto and 2 are from ottawa, just not anywhere near me lol, other pics are of my position less than 100 meters from the towers and you can see the network its on 4g if lucky otherwise edge (tower is corner of campeau and teron other one is castlefrank and 417)
Also do you have issues with the phone when it tries to switch between 4g and lte?

I live in sandy hill and work downtown. I hit 4g downtown but 90% of the time I'm on LTE at home which is pointless as I have WiFi.
Sent from my HTC-X710a using XDA App

i haven't really noticed anything when they switch, but i'm not really aware of when it does.
what i have noticed is that when i'm on LTE my signal kinda dwindles, but its not unusable. its actually more functional than with full strength on 4g.

So I figured out why I was getting such low speeds on my tests. I was running off a Montreal server so it was skewing my results.
After using the Ottawa server my results improved drastically. The top 3 are after I switched to the Ottawa network.
I am impress.
LTE for the win.

Im in the same boat, for some reason speedtest and alot of other cell signal apps put me in montreal as my location when trying to figure out my location via cell signal. funny thing is it only happens when in lte, wonder if this is some sort of bug? when i change it to ottawa speed def picks up.
Also rogers is having issues with their lte they gave me 50%off my bill for 6 months so i pay 25$ for 10 gb and 25$ for my north america unlimited plan, may be worth calling in for you as well

AT&T LTE is about on par with your LTE speeds, cept I haven't managed to get more then 2 bars on LTE.

I haven't noticed any signal loss or poor call quality so overall I'm impressed so far, other than it nit picking up my LTE in downtown Ottawa. Maybe I'll call rogers after all haha
Sent from my HTC-X710a using XDA App

I've found online that there's a setting the mobile network section to set it to LTE auto. After turning that on I haven't had an issue with my LTE network signal other than it dropping in my office building, but even then it still manages to pump out 15-20meg or so.

Hey everyone,
we can't imagine the life without the internet. Today everything can be done with the help of internet. I am so lucky that I have a good internet service provider which gave me 20 Mbps speed.
Thanks

5 m/bit sec from my phone!

Here's what i just got at home. Must have been a fluke because UK networks just don't go this fast:

I live in Brazil. Here, the speed at 4G is quite difficult, depending on the region.
The north and northeast region of Brazil is a sign that it is a southern region is better.

PC: 32/8 Mbps.

As speedtest.net is unreliable and is often gamed by ISPs, i'd recommend fast.com as an alternative. It seems to return consistent results, at least on a fixed connection.
Unfortunately it seems almost impossible to get a reliable reading using any tester on a mobile connection. Results fluctuate wildly from one moment to the next and probably should be taken with a pinch of salt.
