any news on AT&T 7.2 mbps rollout?

[-aggie-]

Wow I never knew I had this much speed!

That's on 3G? Looks like wi-fi.

where are you located? because im getting the same thing. im in miami

I'm about an hour away from Detroit.

while having pizza over with my boss, he confirmed it would be out tomorrow.

Epic win.

Forget 7.2 Mbps, has any iPhone user in the united states even seen close to 3.6 Mbps yet?

I consistently get around 2 Mbps on 3G.

Seriously. At home is the only place I've been able to get 2+Mbps. I have noticed my phone getting 5 bars inside at work, which didn't happen for the first month I had the phone nor ever before on my original iPhone.

I'd personally love to see at least 1Mbps almost everywhere I go, except maybe indoors or places where there is a flood of people (sporting events, malls).

I usually only see 1.5Mbps in Cincinnati

Me too and thats at the strongest signal point for me.

1.5MPBS is good enough to stream an MLB game in pretty good quality. Stop complaining.

The game video on MLB At Bat over wifi is stunning, in my opinion. I assume they're using HTTP streaming video...

That's Wi-Fi connected...not 3G

Either that or he's from the future when AT&T rolls out 10.56 mbps.

 

[toxictrix]

You can tell it's wifi from the icon.

 

[STEVESKI07]

You can tell it's wifi from the icon.

Ahhh your right...so he's NOT from the future. Thanks for clearing that up.

2 Mbps is twice the speed I regularly get, so don't be upset.

In DC, I'm at a constant 800kbps. :/.

 

[charliehustle]

Rogers in canada already has that, but mind you it's "up to 7.2"

so don't expect it to be an average of 5Mbps,

 

[charliehustle]

this is what I got, but I'm in my apartment, so it might be better outside..

I thought what he said was funny. No need to blow up at him. I think he posted that for comedic effect rather than insulting you.

people post that same joke over and over again... its old and never was funny

i average around 1.2mbps in NYC, which according to Boy Genius Report is the average AT&T speed reported from around the country.

I don't know how accurate this is, but:

Keep in mind that this was a few months ago. AT&T and others could have made improvements since then.

 

[renewed]

no thats pathetic

Join my world. It says 3G but it's terrible here in Houston.

I'd be happy with consistent Edge service... never mind 3G... never mind 3G 7.2Mbps.
