I am in thornhill, richmond hill, downtown toronto mostly.

Now it makes perfect sense.

Those are the area's where speeds on Wind are great throughout the day.

this guy's speed results aren't too good apparently.

The guy is just being throttled. Look at the data usage.

So I use Mobilicity, and while I love the calling plans, the data speeds that I have been getting are pretty miserable!
I live and work in downtown toronto, and the best download speed I get is ~0.2MBps with 0.05MBps being common.
I did look at some of the speeds posted here, but I would like to know from users the wind speeds I can expect if I switch. Would really appreciate inputs from users, especially the downtown area (king, queen, university avenue).
Also, I use a Nexus S, do phones matter for data speeds?

Thanks in advance!

How are you measuring the speed? Are you talking about upload or download speeds?

**wheaties** · 05-24-2012, 10:56 AM

It depends when you use it... during weekdays Wind's network is very slow.

Wellington/York @ 11:55 AM:
Download Speed: 583 kbps (72.9 KB/sec transfer rate)
Upload Speed: 64 kbps (8 KB/sec transfer rate)

If you come in at 5 AM that will be like 14 down 2 up

I remember a few years ago I streamed almost every game of World Cup on my Nexus 1 over Rogers (they had applied an unlimited data promo for 6 months). The same thing would be impossible at these speeds with Wind.

Using the speedtest.net app. I mentioned the download speeds

I can't seem to break 1.3 Mbps in Durham. Can anyone else confirm? I'm using a nexus one.

I've always had lousy up speeds but down and ping speeds are showing a definite trend upwards. This test was carried out a few days ago in Mississauga, near Cawthra and QEW at around 2:00 in the afternoon while tethered to my laptop with a 9790. I have no idea why it connected to the Kitchener server instead of Oakville or Toronto but this is still pretty representative of the speeds I'm getting.
