dn0 Posted October 20, 2005 CID Share Posted October 20, 2005 I have noticed the EV-DO service coming and going since yesterday, they are in the process of turning it up apparently. I usually only get 80kbps down, and less up. Speeds are not bad for sitting out in the middle of nowhere next to a field. :::.. Download Stats ..::: Connection is:: 989 Kbps about 1 Mbps (tested with 2992 kB) Download Speed is:: 121 kB/s Tested From:: https://testmy.net/ (server2) Test Time:: Thu Oct 20 14:30:17 CDT 2005 Bottom Line:: 18X faster than 56K 1MB download in 8.46 sec Diagnosis: May need help : running at only 89.02 % of your hosts average (72.221) Validation Link:: https://testmy.net/stats/id-ZN0GCRI4H Upload has been questionable though. I got 88kbps earlier, but that was the best. :::.. Upload Stats ..::: Connection is:: 26 Kbps about 0 Mbps (tested with 97 kB) Upload Speed is:: 3 kB/s Tested From:: https://testmy.net/ (server1) Test Time:: Thu Oct 20 14:38:23 CDT 2005 Bottom Line:: 0X faster than 56K 1MB upload in 341.33 sec Diagnosis: May need help : running at only 8.47 % of your hosts average (72.221) Validation Link:: https://testmy.net/stats/id-N3L8OS7HZ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
just- Posted October 20, 2005 CID Share Posted October 20, 2005 what is the advertised top speed against what u getting? the upload has some serious problems Compared to 1xRTT networks currently being used by operators, or the GPRS and EDGE networks employed by their GSM competitors, 1xEV-DO is significantly faster, providing access terminals with download speeds of up to 2.4 Mbit/s. Only terminals with 1xEV-DO chipsets can take advantage of the higher speeds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dn0 Posted October 20, 2005 Author CID Share Posted October 20, 2005 what is the advertised top speed against what u getting? the upload has some serious problems I am not exactly sure, just-. It is my work PC and the i.t. guys said the EV-DO will be active by December. I happened to notice a speed increase yesterday and looked at the diagnostics and it showed the EV-DO as active (in the past it always said CDMA active). The fast service seems spotty so I am sure the upgrade is not yet complete. As for the upstream, I was getting 80-100k earlier on a local site, but at the time I posted here it was not looking so good. I am home now, and the EV-DO is not working here so I am unable to try any more speed tests. edit: found some numbers on there site: Mobile Broadband Sprint PCS Connection Cards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dlewis23 Posted October 21, 2005 CID Share Posted October 21, 2005 thoese arent bad speeds for a EV-DO network, my friend gets about 1/2 of that most of the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
