I've been using Cyanogenmod for about a month now, I was using 10.1 stable but noticed a problem, really slow download speeds, using the speedtest app showed it was true, now I have fibre optic with 40mbps and 10mbps up on the PC, but when I run the test on my phone it always max's at 2mbps download but shoots up to almost 10mbps upload, so I updated to 10.2 and it seemed fixed download went to 8mbps but now its back to 2mbps again, I have the latest gapps installed for Cyanogenmod, I've noticed that if I enable aeroplane mode or disable WiFi (anything to re-set WiFI even unplugging the router) when the WiFi re-connects it temporarily speeds up, I'm using the GSM build since I could not find a build for Vodafone UK could that be the problem?
Anyone? I know nothing about Kernel but could flashing a new Kernel fix it? I really like CM so it would be a shame if I had to remove it.
Fixed it, if anyone else has this problem I realised that when you flash with team win recovery you need to flash the ROM, then the Gapps, do not flash them together! mods you may close this now.
Edit after rebooting for a backup its back to 2mbps again, really need help

Today was the first time I installed a mod onto my device. I updated the radio to TheOfficial_Nexus1_Radio_Update_4.04.00.03_2.zip and flashed CM5.0.6. Everything has been great, EXCEPT my device won't connect to 3G coverage. It clearly displays 3G, but no internet applications will load (ie browser, email, weather). When I force the device to use only 2G / Edge, then it works fine, but obviously speeds are SLOW. WiFi too works flawlessly. Any ideas? I tried going back to TheOfficial_Nexus1_Radio_Update_4.03.00.21_2.zip and this did NOT solve the problem.
Ideas please? My N1 has become a 2G device in a matter of hours, SUCKS!
I should add I'm on T-Mobile and prior to any modifications today I had excellent 3G coverage.
For testing purposes...have you tried to flash 5.0.3 and seeing if your phone still has 3G issues?
I will try this right now. I was told it doesn't matter if I flash the radio before or after install... true?
No difference with 5.0.3. When 3G is displayed no data will transfer. When H is displayed, then I get good data transfer. However, the H is only there maybe 1 time every 5 minutes or so.
Could be an issue with not having rooted the device properly? When I rooted I never got the SU notification like I have seen in some threads showing a picture where you have to click "allow" for the device to allow root. I do have the app superuser permission on the device, but it's empty when I open it.
Thx
Well you can always just go from scratch. Get into bootloader, flash all of the stock PASSIMG images and then start over...
-flash recovery
-go into recovery, perform the traditional wipes
-flash the rom of choice
-reboot and see what happens
Does this happen in all locations or just at home/work/etc?
i've only been working out of home today. tomorrow ill be a better test. i took suggestions from posts i placed in the official cm5.0.6 thread in the rom development forum... and i changed some information in the build.prop. i think it has actually helped my issue... will be reporting back if i'm wrong..
hey everyone, i flashed version 1.0 of andromeda recently and i have noticed that my data speeds (especially market downloads) are very slow. i couldn't even complete a download of speedtest to actually determine my data speeds. over wifi i'm fine, but on att's network i can not finish market downloads. to fix this, i did an odin flash back to stop and a master clear, but even on stock now my market downloads are extreeeemely slow over 3g.
i dont see how this has anything to do with andromeda because after 2 stock flashes and 2 master clears i still have trouble with the market. just wondering if anyone else is having this problem or if there's anything else i can do to fix it.
ETA: ive used several other roms/kernels and have not had this issue until i installed andromeda. stock flash + master clear should negate any effects of a bad install, but i figured this might be relevant.
Not experiencing same issue but running andromeda 2. Have you considered flashing a different modem
that was my next step...but im getting these problems now even with the stock modem on JF6. no idea what's going on.
I experienced something like this on another rom once before. Have you checked if there are service issues in your area? Its the problem on wifi as well?

could be possible, but it would have to be a fairly widespread issue because i had the same issues this morning about 70 miles away from where i am right now.
How is data on wifi
Hello,
I seem to have this problem with my HTC One rinning ViperOne 2.7.0. The phones takes a LOT of time starting a download over wifi, and by a lot I mean minutes. After that (if it starts) it still downloads very slowly. Over mobile data network the problem isn't there.
I have tried other ROMs, such as ARHD or CM 10.2, same issue.
It may be a problem with my wifi network, but it goes at full speed on every other site/app I run (except Youtube and Play Store... Google services?) and I get 60ms ping and full DL speeds in speedtest.
Here is a quick video to show you the issue: clicky me ([YOUTUBE] tag didn't work)
I tried restarting the router with no luck. Is there any port I have to manually open to make it work? I didn't have this problem a month ago, it just randomly started to act like this.
Hello everyone, I'm having a weird problem which has been happening for quite a while now, basically stock ROM using speed-test app 20-30Mb/s download speed AWESOME
Now when using custom ROMS (So far Cyanogenmod and Viperone) my download speed is limited to 2Mb/s youtube stutters, pages load slow etc pretty much a pain since its a smart phone that uses a lot of internet, now it gets weirder, no matter what my download is locked to my upload speed always stays a nice healthy 10Mb/s, even weirder still is if I reboot the phone for the first 3-4 minutes of being back on download speed is back to normal (20-30Mb/s)
Even weirder still is when using Android Revolution HD (ARHD) my WiFi still works perfectly, so what ever ARHD and the stock from have in common my WiFi must agree with it! As far as troubleshooting I've done clean installs, I've even made my router run only in 2.4GHz
Someone please help I don't wanna be stuck on one custom ROM when there is so many to try
please provide some more details
which Android?
have you tried updating your firmware?
I always make sure I have the newest, happened with 4.2/4.3/4.4 base firmwares
have you tried unchecking "WiFi Optimization" in WiFi?

Sorry to dig up this old thread, but I am experiencing similar issues, albeit with a different device (OnePlus 3).
Only the stock Oxygen Rom gives good Wifi tethering performance, but trying Cyanogenmod, Bliss, etc. all give the same 1-2Mbps speeds like you described.
Did you ever figure out the issue?
Are (were) you on T-Mobile US by chance?
TIA.
Hello All,
Just got a nexus 6 and went ahead and installed a custom rom (Pure Nexus).
Not sure if its a ROM issue or not (Trying a different rom shortly), but my wifi is terribly slow. I put it next to my amazon fire tablet and ran a speed test multiple times.
Amazon - Avg is 15-20
Nexus is 5-7
I have read some forums that says changing the band helps or forgetting the network and readding but no luck.
Anyone else have any tips before I have to send it back for a new one?
How old is your router?

Less than a year. ATT UVerse provided router.
No problems here, I did a 135 down and 50 up on Comcast router
Looks like something with the Rom. I put Chroma on it and now get around 20 down. I do not think its app related as I just restored all using TB.
Going to clean flash pure and try again.
It's not Pure Nexus, but something else. I'm getting 160 down, 12 up (802.11ac) on Pure Nexus. Have you updated your device's baseband to the latest?
Stock ROM, 802.11n, reaching ISP cap of 60/10 on web speed tests.

Found out it was a rogue app that caused it. Thanks for your responses. Can you point me to the latest baseband? I saw the Modem Collection thread here but the latest looks to be for the M preview back on 7/10?
Go to Google's firmware page and download the latest firmware package. Extract the files inside. I believe there will be an additional archive in the firmware package that you can extract that will contain the radio image.
I was having slow WiFi issues too. I updated the firmware on my router and switched the channel and now it flies.
That's not so easy to do when the entire 2.4GHz band is congested with connections, as it is in my area. Simply changing the channel didn't work for me, and I had to get new hardware that supported 5GHz. The gamers and video watchers in the house all appreciated it.
Other phone is same?
my problem previously was the same..i tried it with stock and aosp based roms, then i went to asked my sister to call our isp.. and the technician was able to verify the problems.. it was our internet cable.. they replaced it and it worked back to normal..
I had a similar problem, but only with the 2.4Ghz band, I live in an apartment complex and in Los Angeles so it's even worse. Luckily nobody uses the 5Ghz band so that works fine for me.
Update but found out that the issue is that my wifi slows down when my BT is on. Does not have to be connected, just have to be on...
Another Update is that I found out the combo is...
Wifi Connected + BT on (Does not have to be connected) + RetailMeNot App
I froze RTMN and now there is no slowness.
So the app is the culprit, not the combination of bluetooth and WiFi. Good thing you got it sorted.
