Using the Kaiser as a HDSPA modem (and Kaisers HDSPA speed in general)

Is anyone getting reasonable speed out of their Kaiser when using it as a modem?
I'm on an unlimited data plan with 7.2 mbps HDSPA.
With my USB modem suppled by the operator I usually get around 4-5 mbps or so.
With the Kaiser I can never reach more than 1.2 mbps to be pretty much exact.
Even worse is surfing on the actual Kaiser, I never reach over 0.8 mbps and in general it feels just as slow as my crappy old first gen 3G phone from Sony Ericsson.
Between the video driver debacle, poor bluetooth implementation and the poor data performance I'm quite inclined to just return the phone before my 30 days of return policy are up...

N1 Speed Test vs. Rocket Stick?

So I was at a T-Mo store on LI the other day and the girl was telling me how fast the laptop was with the "Rocket" or whatever it is called. My N1 gets 1.5 down in that area and so I ran a speed test on the laptop and it was consistently over 4 down. How is it that the laptop could access these speeds but my N1 couldnt?

Did you speed test your N1 in the store? I vet double the download speed about 2miles from my house.

Ya... right next to the laptop.

Multiple reasons;
1) Testing speed to a better server.
2) Laptop has a much more powerful CPU.
And WTF is a "rocket stick"?

What i think is that the "rocket stick" (if it is what i think it is) has higher down limit than your nexus. a internt stick is more expensive than using internet on your phone.

It's the Rogers Rocket stick. In an area of good reception they can supposedly get 7.2 down, however around 4-5 sounds more like a realistic figure.

It's an electronic device that can do things to my girl friend that I can't do.
... Access the internet that is.

[Q] Slow upload speeds

I am a new user of a Samsung Captivate on AT&T, right now I'm not rooted and running the stock software, I generally love the phone, it's much better than my iPhone 3GS and I don't have many issues, except that my upload speed is slow.
I got tired of dropped calls on my iphone and my knowledge of other non-iphone AT&T users seems to indicate that the iphone is the problem with dropped call, the captivate holds on to a call, MUCH better than my old iphone and the download speeds are good, streaming music at High Quality via audiogalaxy is working great.
So I don't think their is anything wrong with my phone.
Testing the phone at work, which is generally has excellent reception for AT&T. I get 1.5 - 2mbps down, which is about what I used to get on my iPhone. But I only get around 150kbps up, my 3GS was even much faster than that in this location usually averaging 250kbps and this phone is supposed an upload speed closer to the iPhone 4 I believe.
Any captivate users on AT&T have a similar issue?

I'm in a terrible reception area at work - would need to test at home...
Currently 128k Down and 256k up

I'm kind of wondering if it's a problem left over from moving my sim from my iphone3GS to the samsung captivate, I had to call to get them to change a data plan and to reset my voicemail to the standard old school voicemail.
I've been using the phone for a week and I've never gone over 250kbps with this phone, but according to the specs I should be getting much better upload speeds.
In central NJ AT&T is actually pretty good and we have consistent 3G coverage, so I it's not like I'm out in the boonies somewhere and that's why my upload is slow.
Guess I should call AT&T.

Your upload speed is normally much lower than your download speed. If you were to do the same test on your broadband at home, you would get maybe if you are lucky 3 mega up for every 30 mega down.
Its how all isps are. The problem is not because of your sim. Also keep in mind that a heavily congested area (new York) will always have bad speeds. The more people with data hogging devices, the slower speeds you will see.
Try doing the bandwidth test again in the middle of.the night or early morning when most people are asleep. You might see some very nice speeds then.

I got my answer
I didn't realize that AT&T disabled HSUPA, I just knew the hardware supported it. and since I'm on the stock firmware that is what is keeping me at 150 - 250kbps.
Thanks for the help guys, it wasn't a big thing like I said but I wanted to know if the problem was my old sim card.

LG Optimus 2x support 802.11n?

Anyone triedd?
Thx

Tested and working, only got to 65Mbps, but thats the router's fault... Laptop only does 65 to...

Yes, 150mbps up and running here

Works fine with my D-link DIR-655

YES ^^ its work

Yes it works, but keep in mind only on the 2.4Ghz band, not the 5Ghz one. Rocking 150 here on my N wifi!

You guys just convinced me to get this phone

Just bought a Buffalo Wireless-N Nfiniti WHR-G300N . Its a 300M wireless router.
I set the 11n mode with 20M/40M in router, my P990 only can connect with 65M speed.
Not know why ? P990 really support 11n?

working here too.
Only got up to 74Mbps though

Never had mine above 72mbps, but then that's the max my N1 reached as well.
Still, both n speeds though.

Had the same issues with my LG Optimus 2x. LG is noting but promises, they can't deliver.
But we should already know this now. It is with all their innovations, they obviously only work in lab environments. Or maybe in Korea.

I can only assume you meant to post that elsewhere, as LG clearly have delivered on wireless N.

Wireless N on paper, yes, but if the phone can't get to 150 mbit or 300mbit, then it is just "speed vaporware". What I would expect with N is at least 150mbit and not only 65 or 75 mbit. Taken this into consideration, deliver in regards to the speed, this is what the original post was meant to be .
I do have a Wireless N 300 Mbit router and that phone never did more than 75Mbit while being connected to the router.

Anything above 54mbps is N, that's all there is too it. If a certain speed was promised you'd have a point.

who the hell needs speeds of 150-300mbps on the phone anyway

Guess it might be useful for transferring HD movies, but other than that it's just bragging rights IMO.

Well, those ratings you see in the wlan connection details should only be treated as indication on what speed you may be able to get.
I managed to transfer files over wifi from my LG with speeds ranging from about 3,3 mb/s to 4,3 mb/s (so up to about 32 megabit/s, depends on whether its using samba server or Websharing).
Thats decent enough for music, images and small videos, but for larger transfers i prefer usb, where I get 10 to 18 mb/s for the external sd depending on whether its reading or writing..

Oddly enough, my O2X only managed like 100KB/s on average. It takes a really long time to transfer movies from my computer through wifi and it's not a problem with me router. My HTC desire can manage ~3+MB/s doing the same thing. I wonder if it's something I'm missing or LG makes crappy phones. Not to mention, this phone is sluggish. If one didn't read the specs and found out it is dual-core, one might think it's got lower specs than a Desire Z.
Anyway, the only way for me to get decent wifi speeds on O2X (starting ~2.5+MB/s and then gets to around 500KB/s) seems to be to restart the phone manually before doing transfers. For some reason, the device tends to get super sluggish after long period of use (without restarting). I definitely hope this is a software issue that will be addressed in Gingerbread release (at least).

4G Speed again

I have a revo and love it. I do alot of tethering though and hate these crappy 4g speeds. I sat side by side with my friends the other day with their verizon phones. Wired tethering, newsgroup downloading. I maxed out around 14mbps...the samsung charge and the moto bionic both were in the mid 20's. We pulled the same files from the same servers. Then we all did speed tests, manually choosing the same servers and the same results came about. Why does the revo get much slower 4g speeds? Can something like this be resolved with a radio software update? I realize the different phones probably have different lte hardware but this is pissing me off. I may have to jump the revo ship soon cuz i got a 4g phone for 4g speed...not 3g plus a little. I do mucho tethering and pull some pretty big files...that's the main reason for me wanting full 4g. Maybe i'm just a jackass

There was a radio upgrade with the v6 update, but has not been implemented as of yet. I do have the radio.diff file that I can put into a zip that someone can flash and try, but I have not been brave enough and wouldn't ask anyone else to be either lol. I can't lose my radio and wait for a new replacement.

Not sure where you are located (could poss check your profile, lol), but here in Portland Oregon, I get anywhere from 14-20Mbps Down and 6.5-11 Up. This has been true with Stock V4, V6 Upgrade, and Revolt Rom. The only time I got higher was when I USB tethered via the ADB method hack. Then I got around 26Mbps Down and 12Mbps Up. Crazy speeds. I love when I can download a large file at 2MB/sec.
As with comparing to 3G speeds. Lucky if you can get 1.3Mpbs Down and .5Mbps Up. Not sure why you would complain about 14Mbps... But, I am also a speed junky, so if I was in your shoes, might be a little frustrated, but still happy with 14Mbps.
-Cybie

14 ain't bad but i'm spoiled by my 100mbit cable service i guess. It's just that i can't get a consistent speed above 13-14mbps/s. I'd like to try that radio update but i don't have the balls to possibly lose my radio....unless a cwm restore will bring it back. I dunno....it's a pointless gripe i guess.

Highest I have seen was 12mbps. I am constantly at about 7-10. Wish I could see higher. I would be happy with 14.

Hell, I was lucky to get 4mbps down in Denver. I noticed on Friday that speeds are up to ~7.5ish. I'm stoked!
