Downloading speed problem?

I have tried to search the forum but I still can't find what I'm looking for.
It seems there're some problems with my downloading speed. My download speed always reach max speed when download gameloft data (1gb takes only ~20 minutes), but aside from that, it's slow. Wifi or 3G, even a 10mb file downloading from a file hosting service like mediafire takes ~30 minutes to complete, if it doesn't stuck.
I'm using Hyperdroid with Siyah kernel. But really, I've got this problem since stock and it won't disappear no matter which rom I tried.
Can someone at least tell me what is wrong? It's frustrated to have to connect to PC everytimes I want to grab something from the internet.

And no idea how the heck the connection got interrupted, I think most of the time it does (otherwise it would continued to download), and only on my phone. When it doesn't, the speed is really slow. Trying another browser doesn't solve it as I tried some of them and the results are the same.
what does speed test on wifi give u?
More information the better
try a speedtest..
sometimes download data depend on server too..
some server give you highspeed, and some server slower..
it should be normal if you normally download on same server with the average speed..
i download data via gaming also fast than download via mediahosting
Just tried some. It gave me 5.12Mps on download speed and 0.57 on upload speed. And the server is in my country, chose another server will give me a connection error. Maybe that explains something, I get max download speed with gameloft data downloading because there's gameloft server in my country. But then comes the question, why downloading speed from server outside my country is so slow (and usually stucks) on my phone? While using the same connection on my PC gives me usual speed (and by "usual" I mean it's really fast).
So the 5.12Mbps your getting.... what connection is that from??
I have a 50Mbps line and get 10Mbps - 24Mbps depending on where i connect to and signal strength etc... over WiFi
I wouldn't say that's bad if its from a 10Mbps line for example ... what were you expecting / how much worse is it than your PC?
On my PC it's about 10-15. The slowest is about 5-6 I think. And it's about the fastest my phone can get.
Sorry for bumping the thread, But I have the same problem
Very low wifi-speeds. Perhaps not rom related
On my computer I get around 16mb/sec, And I used to get that also on my phone. But now the speed is around 2mb/sec. Please somebody know what the problem can be??
regards

[Q] How to test wifi speed

Hey guys,
sorry if this is a stupid question or its been asked before, but how can I test the wifi connection speed on my Prime? There must be a way to do it as all of the reviews have results..
Thanks for any info.
Search market for speed test speedtest.net have a nice app for that
Sent from my Transformer Prime TF201 using XDA Premium App
thanks for the reply but i've tried that, it just tests my internet connection speed. I want to test my local wifi network speed
That is what a wifi test is doing is checking your internet speed.
Now if you want to check your signal strength, then look in the market for apps called wifi analyzer.
Speedtest is serverside so the max speed is going to be dependant on my internet connection.. all i'm interested in is my local speed.
Thanks for the replies.
I don't think there is an android app out, but you could go the other way around.
You could download a lan speed test for your PC and then connect to the IP address of your tablet/connected device and test the speed?
Maybe that will work for you?

Ah now that's thinking outside the box!
Cheers, i'll give it a go.
You need to have some sort of server and an app to download files from that server.
I tested download speed from my nasserver to my Galaxy S2 to compare Wifi G vs Wifi N.
Went from 2.26MB/s on G to 3.66 MB/s on N wifi.
"Filesize / seconds"
My laptop is 10mb/s on same N wifi netowrk.. could be faster but is only 100mbit lan netowork..
Transferring a (large) file from a server to your tablet would measure not only local WiFi speed, but Prime's internal capability of processing and storing data. I just did a quick test downloading a file from my work's Samba server and got speeds of about 0.6 and 2.5 kbytes/s for the Prime and my laptop, respectively. This is in line with kunddizzle, who got laptop speeds about four times faster that from the Prime.
This is interesting. Clearly, WiFi speed is not everything. Prime doesn't seem to be dealing very well with incoming data. Don't know whether it is due to its WiFi receiver, processor, memory, storage or something else. But, at least in two cases reported here, it is slower than a laptop on the same network.

Hi,
I known it's an old thread, but I had the same problem and was not able not find any local wifi speed test application after read a tons of forum. So I've just written an android application that can do that test. Maybe it will be useful for you too.
Just find "wifi speed test" (pzolee) on Google Play.
I am not a big expert in android programming but I tried to do my best

[Q] Limiting Wi-Fi speed

How do I limit my Galaxy Tab's internet speed to 100kb/s?
In a nutshell, im looking for Netlimiter for android kinda thing.
why would you want to slow down the speed? Normally you must be mad at how slow your Wifi is and try everything to speed it up even just a little...
One does not simply play games on computer when Galaxy tab 2 takes all the bandwidth
Bumb, anyone?
Refer to this thread , as there is an app which can limit your wifi speed :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/app-bandwidth-manager-android-t2972889
or directly download the app from here :
Bandwidth ruler free on goolge Store
Wi-Fi
you could just turn off wifi when you are not using it on your tablet.
