AT&T HSPA+ speeds on iPhone 4S?

[Aiko]

Is anyone consistently getting HSPA+ speeds on their ATT 4S? I have yet to see anything past 4MBps on my 4S after travelling to multiple cities in the US.

Not sure if it matters but I noticed that when I first got my 4S I had pretty low ping times when doing speedtests' (<100ms) but lately everything has been 100ms+ and the speeds have been quite lackluster. I did verify that I am on the HSPA+ apn (phone) on my 4S.

No, there's times I can't get past 2Mbps..

No, not really. But, I'm assuming that it's faster than I'd get with an iPhone 4.

Certain parts I get 5-6mbps with my 4S.
Other places an average of 3-4 down and 1 upload.

From yesterday

I regularly get between 6 and 7 Mbps on my iPhone 4. That pic is definitely not HSPA+ speed

 

[goofy1958]

I average 5-6Mbps here in San Antonio. Rarely has it been less than 5.

Why not? The 4s only shows 3g, even if it's HSPA+. I also have an AT&T Shockwave that shows H+, and it averages the same in my area.

getting piss poor speeds at the moment.

Highest I've seen so far on my iPhone 4S was when I'm in Manhattan. 7.91 down and 2.19 up.

I average around 3 down and 1 up in my area, about an hour north of Manhattan.

I'm in Manhattan and haven't seen anything close to that, the highest I've seen is about 3Mbps...

It is HSPA+. We have it in my area.
Your HSPA+ speeds are just faster than mine, that's all.

My 3GS was barely pushing 3.00Mbps.

That number came from East 31st and Madison.

Here's mine. Located about 30-40 miles from Detroit where the server is hosted.

Coming from Android...why does the iPhone have such a humongous ping time? I had pings of 10-50ms on Android devices.

The speedtest.net app for android is horrible and innacurate. Theres no way you'll get that kind of ping on a cellular data connection.

Fastest I've gotten is 9.05 Mbps in Columbus. I regularly get 6-8 downtown.

AT&T in Dallas is the shiz

 

[BiggAW]

First one is typical for Manhattan. I was nice and didn't pick the one that was 0.00/0.00. The next one is my record in Connecticut, although now 4.5-5 is typical.

 

[SirAguilera]

I got a better ping, I'm in Colombia

 

[wordoflife]

^^It's interesting how they wrote 3.5G up there in the carrier.

 

[Apple Expert]

I live in a so called "4G" area and I get on average 2mb down and 1mb up. Once in a while it will spike from 3-5mb on the down. This is what AT&T calls "4G". More like 3G with some marketing attached.

 

[SurferMan]

On my SGII I regularly see at least around 7mb down, though the past week or two it seems to be around 3-4 down moreso. The 4S shows similar speeds on hspa+ down here.... either way much much better and faster then 3G, I don't think my 3GS or 4 ever cracked 1mb down.

Took this snapshot yesterday, pretty good considering the network usually seems congested between 12-3.

This is from the day I got my 4S; I was sitting in a drive thru. It seems plenty fast when using it with with much better connectivity than I got with Sprint so I have zero complaints.

Regularly get 7-9 with 10+ every so often

Just tested 5.92 down and .79 up.

I was just in Seattle and I didn't get anything close to that. More around 1-2. I'm starting to think my 4S isn't on the new HSPA+ network..
