Hey Guys,
Recently got my iPhone 4 and I want to determine if there is a problem with my iPhone 4 or my network speeds are just slow in my area.
I live in the Vancouver area on the Rogers network. The Rogers network in theory provides download speeds up to 21Mbps (advertised on their website).
In downtown I get average download speeds at about 1Mbps and upload at about 0.7Mbps. One test I ran outside of the downtown area I got a top download speed of 2.5Mbps and upload of 1Mbps, however in that area I still averaged around 1.6Mbps for download speeds. Is this normal? It just seems really far off from the advertised speeds and from doing some research it seems the normal speeds on the Rogers network in Canada is around 3-5Mbps.
Also I have an Incase Slider Case, not sure if that reduces reception. I tried doing some tests with the case on and off and doesn't seem to vary greatly.
Any insights would be appreciated!
