    Downtown Toronto -- DATA S L O W Currently?

    I've been experiencing ridiculously slow data in downtown Toronto since ~ 4PM. So slow I can't check email - or even run Speedtest.

    Anyone else experiencing problems? If so, please specify location.

    Had trouble around that same time (4pm) even connecting to 3g data. Had a full 4 bars and could make phone calls but they were white (on android, green bars means you are fully connected to 3g/google servers) and it was impossible to even go on facebook. In central scarborough. It's fine now, weird little hiccup.

    Green just means you're connected to Google Sync, you can still have data while it's white.

    Anyway, I just checked and I'm back online too, but it's painfully slow. I can't even connect to Speed Test at the moment. I was down from about 4-7:30. I've been in North York, Scarborough, and downtown during that span and I was in the dark no matter where I went.

    Same in Brampton/Mississauga, data is not usable! The phone in an attempt to make some sort of connection keeps switching from 3G (UMTS) to H (HSDPA). It's been like this since last week.

    Tried using data on my brothers phone (temporarily a crappy unlocked Huawei 3200) and browsing is working fine for the most part, Toronto. Ever once in a while I do get a DNS Not Set error.
