the highest i gotten on my iphone 4 is 1.81 mbs download and 0.91 upload with 91 ms ping. Im just curious as to how fast verizon 3g can get does anyone know?
 
dam thats good. if verizon was able to get those types of speeds stable in alot of areas then that would be amazing

Stable is the key word here. I can get up to 1.7 in the early morning. But in the evening at peek hours, I get maybe .80. Though my cable internet at home isn't any better. They advertise like 20 mbps, I get maybe 1?

Three UK FTW!
 
What provider do you have at home? Have you considered switching?


I'm in the Pittsburgh area, and we get Armstrong Internet. It's just a local company. They serve Western PA, Eastern Ohio, and a little of West Virginia. It's the only service in this area, no FIOS, no Time Warner, nothing, so switching isn't even possible. I'll definitely be calling them tomorrow to complain because the speeds are ridiculous.
 
Fastest I've gotten is 2.37 down, 1.00 up (Verizon 4S). Average is about 1.4 down and 0.8 up. Which from a technical standpoint sounds pretty bad, but in practice it seems snappy enough for most things (web surfing, email, FaceTime, Siri, etc.).
 
0.25 down & 0.73 up here at home north of Seattle, but I'm home most of the time with 20 down & 27 up on wifi. At least I don't have to restart it a couple times a week to get it to connect to 3G like I did with the Palm. :rolleyes:

Yeah thats what im saying anything over 1 mbs 1.5 mbs download im satisfied with the speed, 5 mbs and up on the ATT 4S is just amazing though lol
