pipmaster1971 Posted March 20, 2007 CID Share Posted March 20, 2007 Soo....I got my new Motorola v3xx cellphone and tried to test it (in what's supposed to be a 3G area). Using dslreports.com I only get about 300Kbps, certainly not the > 1Mbit I was expecting. I tested it using testmy.net and continually get > 1Mbit. Can anyone explain why there should be such a large difference? I am using the phone's built in micro-browser to run both tests. I'm suspecting the poor results are issues with the micro browser.

Don't expect 1MBPS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
just- Posted March 21, 2007 CID Share Posted March 21, 2007 is they actually advertise as HSDPA you should be getting 3.6Mbps some your connection should be : HSDPA: around 3600Kbps this is in bites which is 360kB/s this is in Bytes meaning a 3.6Mbps connection this is if you get good reception of course and the network traffic So if you are getting 300kB/s that is like a 3Mbps connection is not bad for a mobile phone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
