What sort of speeds are you getting out...
« on: 11 December 2013, 10:48:03 »

Of you're mobile network ?

I'm with THREE pay as you go and recently I've noticed huge speed increments at home indoors, Roughly 2-3 bars, Download 6-17mbps, Upload 0.54-1.36mbps. Which for me if unheard of, It's roughly 6x faster than my BT broadband  :o

I normally get between 1-3mbps download on THREE but past few days it's been good, Wonder why  ??? Not that I'm complaining  :y

I wish that I was getting these sort of speeds from 3

My internet has been crawling recently, averaging about 500 kbps in the evenings which is useless.  After much complaining they admitted that the mast in this area needs upgrading but that won't happen until the new year!!!  >:( >:( >:(

That would be because your S2 doesn't have an LTE (4G) radio.

With minimum 1 bar on 3G
Down 0.96
Up 0.69

With 3 bars on 3G
Down 5.4
Up 1.38

On O2.

I'll let you know with a full signal, probably tomorrow. As no network gets full signal round here.

Anywhere from 0.2kbps to 6-7Mb, depending on area. Don't pay that much attention, as beyond pub bragging rights, it makes sod all difference in reality on a handheld device, as long as its "fast enough" (ie, some form of EDGE or 3G).

Was tethering my phone earlier downloaded a 1.2GB file, It completed in 21 minuets usually would take an hour or two on BT for a file that size, May come in handy if it lasts  :y

This is my home Internet 3G dongle from Movistar (they bought O2). It is actually pretty good at the moment. School breaks and rush hours it drops to nothing.

By tomorrow I will have used up my 5GB £40 a month allowance and be pegged on 128k down and around 800k up.

All mobile broadband is too slow for me needs. The latency would kill me as well.

I wouldn't say it's reliable enough for daily use with constantly fluctuating signal bars, Just handy for me now and then when a large file needs to be downloaded, Especially now that it seems to be x6 faster than BT...
