I tried Es explorer and got 0.5MB/s I tried Air android and got 2MB/s.
Both the phone and the computer connected to a D-Link 2650U router which can provide much faster transfer rates according to its datasheet.
I used an application called Network Speed to measure the results - can it be trusted?

I am using my XV6800 (Verizon) DCD2.2.5 as the modem tethered to my laptop via USB using Internet Sharing. Sometimes it works very well, but most frequently it seems to lock up the laptop such that I cannot launch my mail program or browser, with no data transmission after using it for several minutes. The browser window will appear as soon as I disconnect the device. Can anyone suggest a fix??
TIA AAR
I should add that my laptop uses XP (2). Thanks. AAR
I don't know what's causing your lockups, but I use WMWiFi. basically set up a adhoc connection with your laptop and use your wireless card (no usb needed). It's pretty fast, especially with the new radio and rom (evdo rev a). Search around and i'm sure you'll find a copy of wmwifi.
Hi All.
I have a very weird problem with my Prime.
If I check my internet speed with Speetest I get the full 30 Mbits I get from my ISP.
However If I start to download a file form my NAS (WD Mybook Live) to the prime with any app that supports samba shares I'm lucky if the transfer speed hits 3-4 Mbits!! (is was 450kb/s tops)
Coping the same file to my PC from the NAS goes with ~25Mb/s
Did anybody else encounter this issue?
Oddly, I have this problem on my Galaxy Nexus and most other devices I've owned. I'd used to be able to get 1MB/s (8mbits) which is still slow
Perhaps it's something to do with our router & server settings
sup,
i wanted this device as a media tablet, i currently use plex on ipad to watch media which reqs having a computer on to stream it which isnt ideal. I tried usb and was so slow and then i tried the xperia connect thing which transfer ed one hd movie (7.64gb) in 10mins+ thats far too slow to be useful.
does anyone know of a way to transfer much faster than that, using wifi ideally since my router has 600+ on the 5ghz band?
apps: AirDroid, TotalCommander (has FTP, SFTP, SMB plugins) and a bunch more.

Be aware though. The XZ2 is restricted on its wi-fi download speeds.

Ive actually tried superbeam. It's very buggy and frequently drops connect no matter what I try.
Do you mean with the setting "wifi optimization"? I've unchecked that and get somewhere in the region of 460mbps from the tablet and z2 phone on 5ghz. It seems really odd to me that transfers are so slow, even via USB. It's a brand new device, they should have this crap sorted by now. It seems transfer rates haven't improved at all since android's conception.

Wifi will always suck for large files. It's never going to actually run at the speed it says it can do. Copying to a MicroSD directly using the pc and then putting the MicroSD into the tablet will always be quickest. Don't forget to change the disk policy in Windows to performance or it won't be the best speed.
Hi all.
I recently got the Z3 Compact and was enthusiastic about its WiFi transfer speeds when connected to my PC. My earlier phone the Nokia 5800 XM did it at a pretty good speed, and so I was expecting the 5 year jump to a new phone with newer technology would have massively improved on the network file transfer speed.
I tried 2 ways to transfer huge files (1 GB+) to and fro between my PC & the phone.
1.) I used the a couple of the many WiFi Transfer Apps, including Wifi File Transfer Pro & Airdroid.
2.) I turned on an FTP server on my phone via the FTPServer & My FTP Server apps, and then tried the file transferring using FileZilla on my PC.
However, even after using both the methods, I noticed that I was only getting speeds of about 3 MBps. I read in one of the forum threads that the speed might be getting slowed down due to "encryption" while using a non-ftp server based method, and that is why I gave the FTP Server method a try as well. To no avail though.
My Wi-Fi router is the Digisol DG-BG4100N and it boasts of bollocky 100 Mbps+ speeds. My PC is the Asus SX086D K55VM.
What am I doing wrong here? How do I get a faster transfer rate? Xender easily does 5 MBps on an average between two devices. Surely, the PC should be able to equalize that speed, if not better it, right? Thanks a ton for any suggestion you'd like to make, including your own method of the fastest wireless file transfer method between a PC and an Android device.
EDIT - This is the first time I'm posting a thread here at XDA, kindly advise if I have posted it to the wrong sub-directory.
I've searched the p30 pro section but couldn't find any info on this. If I've missed this I'm truly sorry!
On my local nas server I'm getting kinda slow transfer rates when using many different file explorers (with or without smb2. 0) from the market. The fastest I could find was doing about 12 MBps on my asus rt-ac68u 5G wifi. With the stock app transfer speeds are at least 5 times faster (about the maximum possible over my wifi connection)
Does anyone know why this is, or has anyone got a file manager working that isn't this slow? For the moment I'm using the huawei manager for large file transfers but It's interface is really primitive imho.
