Tell me you got a new phone where you pay to get 1 Mbps and 100 ms rtt to major exchange points. When the market moves forward enough to make that a reality, that’ll be a generation worth celebrating.
It's not quite 100 ms, but not too shabby:
--- svt.se ping statistics ---
21 packets transmitted, 21 packets received, 0.0% packet loss
round-trip min/avg/max/stddev = 86.396/133.311/257.719/44.787 ms
According to another test app I'm getting 1Mbps down and 130kbps up. Time to celebrate my iPhone?
I think I was getting better speeds before switching to another operator, too. (And the bandwidth test app seems to agree, it classified my result as merely "acceptable" and not "good").
- randallsquared 16y agoMy RTT is similar here in Alexandria, VA on T-mobile. Of course, my N900 usually shows 3.5G instead of 3G. Having not paid much attention, it's not clear to me what that means in real speed terms.
- barake 16y agoThat 3.5G is HSPA+ which has a max downstream of 21 megabit versus 3G (HSDPA) at about 7 megabit down.
