What's the max speed of the wifi? - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Looks like it's capped at 10mbps as far I can tell on my local network

Nope, I've had 24mbps (download) on mine.

Got full speed here too. 15 Mbps.

[Q] what are the 3g speeds that you get on your vibrant

Well i was asking this because my speeds are pretty impressive because i get 6000kbps download and 1200 upload.. So what do you guys get
3-5 mbps when on 3g. But unfortunately there's no 3g at my place so 150kbps. Sucks eh?
The highest I have seen was 6, but the average is 2-4 mbps.
I get 0.03 - 0.8mbps on 3G in my house. The funny thing is I used to get 2-6mbps download about 2 weeks ago consistently in the same place here in downtown Dallas.
My upload speeds have been consistent at 0.75-1.8mbps
That about the same upload I get here in Dallas too.

People will post if they want to - probably is quite because there has already been a lot of discussion of speeds.
Man, what the hell is going on with Sprint's 3g latley... I know they have alot of new members but still, it should not have this bad of an impact.
It must be there network. At my house using my airave I just got 2.5Mbps. At work where I have a good signal I was getting between .25 - .5Mbps.
If it was the radio I would probably get slow speeds on my airave as well. At least that is what I would assume.
These speeds are with the 3g proxy fix.....
I didn't see a big difference with the fix. But my ping increase 10th fold with the fix...meaning the connection was worse. So I went back to original. I doubt sprint put the proxies just to slow the phone down...they are competing with other providers in terms of 3g network speed.
I agree network must be having problems. My fiancees EVO scores same as my 3vo. At apartment we always get 700 kbs to 1.3 mbs. Lately we lucky to 100 kbs downloads

You realize your airave uses your home internet?
I get between 5-10mbs down and about 1-2 up on 4g. On 3g I get between 100kbs -1.5mbs down depending on the signal level. 100-500kbs upload. I live in huntsville and decatur al.

I mean unofficial by unannounced by sprint but shows on clearwire coverage map,
good speeds though right?
3G: 1.16Mbps / 0.60Mbps
4G: 4.56Mbps / 1.63Mbps
WiFi: 6.91Mbps / 3.43Mbps
These are all 4g (Charlotte, NC)
And the bottom four are 3g. They were horrible that whole day.
The one I just ran was 1075kbps and 363kbps which could still be better.
On another note, I noticed when I left 4g on, it didn't drain my battery the way I thought it would. I suppose it was since it was connected the whole time and not scanning for it.
Gotta love WiMax in these parts. I remember last year around this time when 8Mbps was my peak speed.

This is pretty good for 3pm! My 3vo was dragging the first week i bought it but now it seems to be better. I think it was a network issue as well. I hope so cuz the phone is solid other than the data issues.

People having slow internet speeds with At&T samsung galaxy S2

DO NOT USE THE SPEEDTEST APP!! I was going crazy trying to figure out why I kept getting the same speeds as my Iphone 4 no matter the location or signal strength. Turns out that when I went directly to the speakeasy speedtest from the browser I got 11.51Mbps down and 1.06Mbps up!
(will upload pic of my results when i get more than 8 posts )
My guess is that the phone throttles the speeds for non intensive internet apps and it accidentally throttles speedtest. Nevertheless the only thing that was bugging me about this phone is fixed!
Yep you're right just got 10.78 down and 1.28 up

i'm guessing this assumes that you live in one of the cities that the speakeasy browser test lets you select from...
i live in st. louis, so the closest city i could select was chicago - same results as the app for me.
Still getting 2.8-3.0/1 going this route. Exact same as the app for me.

Ran a test on speakeasy as well as sprints speed test site and got

Those not getting the faster speeds try to pick a different server. I sometimes get better speeds from the san francisco server than the local LA server. Also, from home, I get 2-3 bars and never get over 3.5 Mbps so keep in mind that the tower youre connected to might not be upgraded for faux 4g or your signal might be weak.
When I run Speedtest on my Verizon 4G Xoom, it's showing 25-30 down.

When I run Speedtest on my gaming PC with Comcast Extreme I get 85GB down. What's your point?
Im on fiber here Im guessing I shouldnt say what Im getting
on H+ on att here in NYC, Jercity city and when taking Amtrak to Wilmington De, I am constantly getting 287k DOWN and 345k UP.. sucks!!!!!!!!!!
But, much better than my iphone on 3G.
Speedtest app gave me speeds of 2-3.5mb down and 1-1.3 up. Speakeasy speed test site now gives me 8.89mb down and 1.09 up. Very nice!
Using speakeasy, I got much better results. When the bandwidth is there, I'm able to get 7Mbps down, where as with the speed test app, I was having a hard time getting over 3Mbps.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I777 using XDA App
I think it's Speakeasy or something. I get 11.5mbps download, and 3.5mbps upload on 4G from Speakeasy, but from Speedtest I get around 3.5mbps download, and 1.5mbps upload.
From my computer on wifi, using speedtest.net I get around 7mbps download, and around 4mbps upload. But using Speakeasy, it jumps to 11.5mbps download and 3.75mbps upload.
So, I think it's just that Speakeasy somehow boosts it up?
All I'm saying is that it's not a problem throttling the bandwidth of SpeedTest.
EDIT: Nevermind, I forgot to turn Wi-Fi off on my phone . Sorry, noob error. Using Speakeasy I get 1Mbps download, and .9Mbps upload...
Getting 3mbps on GS2 while my girlfriend's Atrix 2 gets 6mbps. Tried speedtest app, speak easy, Sprint's network test. Wtf? Maybe I got the wrong phone.

To all my non LTE brothers

Myself, being in between 2 LTE cities, Raleigh and Charlotte NC, I'm from Greensboro am stuck with hspa+...how ever running a test it seems like we are like the Atrix, seems that hsupa is disabled!!!! I'm am only getting .3/.4 mbps upload like when I first first got the Atrix. After the update I was getting over 1 mbps upload..... Any idea if maybe the other radios will enable hsupa on those unfortunate of not having LTE for the time being?

At my work I average about 10-12mb download on HSPA+ and about 1mb generally. I'm pretty sure 1mb up for HSPA+ is the fastest you should get.

Honestly, I wouldn't care if I don't get LTE speed if they just give me a SOLID HSPA+ speed or even a solid 3G speed.
I am lucky if I can get 1mb for download.
I'm at 7 / 1
Thankfully the wifi at school aint bad: 30 / 12
I live in an LTE area so I had to make a phone call then run the speed test really quick before it could switch back to LTE. I got 6.87↓ 0.83↑, not exactly phenomenal results but definitely faster upload speed than hspa.
i live in chantilly va.
at work 50 down 15 up
at home 2 down 1 up, only 5 miles away from work.
Coming from an iphone and getting 1down 1up on 3g, I'm very happy with the 8 down and 2 up on HSPA+. Sure I wish I was in an LTE area but that will do for now. The shocking part is I'm in a rather small mountain town in Colorado.
I'm getting .31 down and. 1 up and it says 4g. My phones like jacked up

Getting 20-35 down, 10-20 up in Dallas.
LTE speeds decrease fairly dramatically in relation to decreased signal strength, so trying to compare 2-bar measurements to 5-bar measurements is kinda pointless.
In DC, im seeing:
with 5 bars: 26-40 down
4 bars: 20-25
3 bars: 10-19
2 bars: 6-9
1 bar : 4-5
Here is mine in New York City.

These are my various speed. Typical for me. I haven't tested in a while, but I have noticed no speed declines.
The highest speeds I've achieved are posted in my signature. 48.35 Mb/s down and 11.29 Mb/s up. I live in Suburban Washington in the State of Maryland.
56.49Mbps I'll take it! Location: Decatur, GA.

Megabits.
(Mb) = Megabit (MB) = Megabyte
Mbps = Mega bits per second
32Mb = 4MB
So it would take 5 seconds to download a 20 MB file at the download speed of 32 Mbps.

27/4 in the Kent area. That's because Akron and Canton have officially turned on LTE, Cleveland is being roadtested. Soon. That's a hell of a nice swath of LTE coverage for Ohio.
