Cingular 3G HSDPA Speed Test

[z6joker9]

Using bandwidthplace.com on my Blackjack at 7:30am CST in Cordova area of Memphis, I got 2.2 MB/sec

Using text.dslreports.com, 1MB test, I got 868 kbit/sec with .379 latency, 9.809s DL time.

I heart 3G.

My latest test - North Dallas - Sierra Wireless AC860

1378kbps down, 368kbs up, 120ms latency

i got 2 bars of umts and i got only 312.4 kilobits per second on my 8525.

On the Treo 750v (Cingular) and using text.dslreports.com (on PIE), 1MB test, I am getting 700-912 kbit/sec routinely here in Palo Alto, CA.

Same on my unlocked TyTn.

Given the ease of the HSDPA on Treo 750 hack, it is no-brainer. Makes me wonder why Cingular crippled it to begin with....power to the people!

I've been getting 300 kb/sec in the past two days in the San Francisco area where I used to average 750 kb/sec. Is anyone else in this area noticing the same thing? Or is it just my device?

Also, my speed tests used to be like this on dslreports:

2kb, 100, 205, 300, 450, 550, 700, 800, 950, done. Avg 750 kb
and now its like:

2kb, 100, 205, 300, 305, 307, 311, 320, 325, 335, 350, 400, 450, 550, 650, 800, 925, done.
Avg 200-300 kb

not exact numbers, but you know what I'm tryin to point out.

anyone notice when its colder the data speeds are better?

[dcrombie]

anyone using an XU870 yet ? I have a CU500, but I'm waiting on the expresscard so I can have it for domestic / international. I'm getting consistent 900s down in manhattan.

I will post pics of my results tomorrow. Downloading files from a pay per use news server is a good benchmark. Nothing can get cached. On the 8525 using an AT&T blue card, download speeds are 968Kb/s. The speed must be capped because it does not fluctuate up or down more then 2%.

Those speeds are using a USB cable. The best I can get using a 1.1 Bluetooth connection is 300Kb/s. Has anyone tried a Bluetooth 2.0 card with EDR (Enhanced Data Rate (3Mb/s)) with the 8525? I wonder if it can sustain those bit rates.

Assuming you have a data plan , how fast is your cingular connection ?

I got 150kbps via http://www.dslreports.com/mspeed

time to get a 3G/HSDPA phone

[I have a phone]

1.2MB/s, yea me

[Wide_opeN]

1.2??? Wow!!! You live right by the tower don't you???

[Extraordinary]

have seen it as fast as 120 kbps but normally under 40kbps

[Wide_opeN]

have seen it as fast as 120 kbps but normally under 40kbps

Dude it's time for you to step up to 3G!!!

[codered54]

I tether almost everyday on my treo 650 and get anywhere from 120-200kbps.

average around the 1.8 mark here with the a707

waiting on the 3.6 to kick in with the v3xx
