Infuse throughput speed experienced?

I am wondering what kind of throughput others are getting.
Today at an intersection in Jupiter, FL I noticed full signal and decided to try Speedtest through Miami server: 9400kbs down/1250 kbs up. Captivate usually around one-third of that....and yes wi-fi was off

The most I ever got out here on the west coast is 2300dn 1042up. To get what you get is impressive.

well im happy. it's not quite "4g" yet because my area doesn't have the backend for it. but it is better than the <1mbps that verizon phones see. some places the market wont even work on verizon 3g because there speeds are in the 100kbps area. t-mo is cool but coverage is not great.

Bump.
I'd like to see what speeds others have experienced with their Infuse. I'm curious because my GF's Infuse (see thumbnail) consistently gets 6-7 mbps down and .7-1.2 up. While my Inspire's upload is more consistent, my download (in the same spot, at the same time, to the same server) is usually significantly lower than the Infuse. Impressive. I've seen as high as 9+ mbps as well, and it hasn't been odd to hit those speeds, as they've occurred numerous times.

Same here infuse dl is much higher thsn inspire when tested back to back not at the same time infuse avg was 11 mbs down while indpire was 4.5 down uplaod was the same

ive gotten 14mbit down, hasnt really fallen below 10. ive gotten a consistant 1.2mbit up no matter how good or bad the signal is or how speedy the connection is, it always gets the same thing.

lte hot dam

Hit let area first time ever 25mbs download
omg why isn't lte EVERYWHERE?!! is there way to make your phone hit lte more?

Nope, it's limited by coverage area, but I know what you mean. Speedy speedy!

Verizon's Lte is everywhere.

Yea, I hate to champion one corrupt corporation over another, but I'd much rather be on at&t's network since the fall-back network is still leaps and bounds faster than Verizon's fall-back network (and they have had a number of outages on their LTE network this year so far). Fortunately I live in San Antonio so I have access to 3 major carriers' LTE networks.
That said, at&t can piss off with their restrictive policies. I only hate Verizon slightly more.

But my God 25mbs is amazing if could offer that every where I pay tom more I just wish my wifi that fast

I get LTE for AT&T in weird places here. I live in Oklahoma and get LTE of course in the bigger areas but sometimes LTE 4g in like small towns kind of cool but kind of weird.

You think 25Mbps is fast, check my sig...

Lol yeah. I just came back from Anaheim. Hot damn. 16 Mbps. But speed test used up 30 MB of data... I'm now being charged $30 for using 204.6 MB of data. >_>

What kind of network speeds are you getting?

Im seeing posts everywhere about problems with 4g, weak signals, etc. Im just curious to see what other people are getting for speed tests. I tried searching with no result so i dont know if this has been covered already.
I know theres alot to account for signal, how busy the network is, etc. But i just wanted a idea if im getting regular speeds.

Get around the same as you two, would take a shot but I literally live a block away from where it stops. How about on 3G too? I get terrible speeds compared to my last phones, under a MB for each. .97 d/l and .40 u/l.
People keep telling me those are "normal", sure maybe for them but not for me where I live.

Havent seen 3g in about 3 days but next time i do ill do a test.
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda app-developers app

Not going to post my current speed test, because I'm away for the weekend in the middle of no where and the closest server has massive lag... it showed me as having about a .03 mbps download last night. I know it's better than that.
My 3G speeds in the real world though have been pretty standard compared to my previous phones, however. If I remember when I get home Monday I might post a screen.

Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda premium

I read somewhere to remove the SIM card and battery and reinsert them. I did that and instantly noticed a difference. I'm still getting a weaker signal then I did with my rezound though. However, if there is a strong signal, the speeds are the same if not better.

Is moving to get a better download speed an acceptable reason to relocate?

Awesome speed!

Where on the Jersey side of the river are these speeds, I am on the water myself and only get 20-25 down

My rezound used to get max bars along with speed ..usually avg 18mbps but now in same location I get 3 bars and I can barely get 5-6 Mbps and the ping is 120ms+ consistently. Not sure what the problem is..

+1 other than getting faster speeds when I can actually achieve full bars.

4G LTE

So how long did your area (City/Town) take to fully turn on your 4G? Reason I'm asking is because today all day I had 4G which I was shocked to see because I'm not in a 4G area. Obviously this means that they are testing it I would assume?

I had never noticed them testing in my area (Duluth, mn) until the day they said it was scheduled to be turned on.

Yeah I didn't think they did but this is the second time in the last month that it's been switched on for a bit and then just randomly goes away. Speeds were amazing today though when It was on :thumbup:

In my town it has taken over a year yo get good 4g service from Verizon. A yr ago I had to put my phone in the Window to get one bar of 4g ad now today I get full service anywhere in my place. The best download speed I have gotten was 19mbps.. But that was at night and the network wasn't loaded down

I get anywhere from 40 - 50 mbps down

I'm over in Oregon and there is still no 4G i my area. From what I heard is that Verizon contracted a company to lay the cables and then they sub contracted it to Century Link. Well CL dropped the ball and now we have to wait even longer for 4G.

4G was on when I moved here. Awesome signal everywhere!! That's what I love about living near D.C.

This is true. I wish Apple would have implemented NFC in the iPhone 5. You know if they would have, it would soon be supported all over!! As much as we all don't like to believe it, Apple/iPhone influences a lot of technology in other fields.

Haha. Can't answer these. Had full time 4G in Houston since Tbolt was released. Have to drive 50 miles to find 3G.

Well seems like my city is lit up I've held 4G all day and I love it! I'm in cali in the high desert so its super exciting to finally have it. Honestly don't even wanna turn wifi on :beer:

Seems like every where out here is getting 4g around us in like the last month ive seen 4-5 towns get covered in 4g. (i drive around for work)

No where close in MASS. Whatever, I have 4G anyway.

I live roughly 60 miles north of Syracuse, who appears to be getting 4G tomorrow. Anyone know if I'll be able to benefit, up here in Watertown?

I think they are expanding in Syracuse, not rolling it out. I am pretty sure they already have 4G. I am about 70 miles south of Syracuse and I am not expecting anything different by us. I am pretty sure that 4G has much shorter range so changes further away don't really impact surrounding areas.

I was always under the impression that the nearest tower was in Utica, which was why we got 4G service in Syracuse. I could be totally wrong, though.
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda app-developers app

Weird that they have that map there but it doesn't actually show all the current 4G. There is a lot more than they're showing on there.
And of course it is just a screen shot... of an interactive map.

Well according to the article in the OP, Syracuse is listed under the category of "expand the existing 4G LTE"...take that for what it is worth I guess.

I don't see what the fuss is about unless your on a grandfathered unlimited plan since with the new shared plans, Verizon lets you surf the web and check your email, anything else will drain your mbs for each month. Its totally bassakwards, they put up more towers rolling out 4GLTE, but with their new limitations, 4G speed is kind of irrelivent if you hardly get the chance to use it IMO.

Regardless of how fast you use your GB limit (if you have one), I think most people would prefer faster speeds.

4g in vandalia today woot! I have unlimited data so it's sweet I have uverse Internet so I don't tether but 4g speeds are sweet.

Hour and a half away for me, that is if it is up at 12am. Can't wait.

man 4g sux indoors though... Always drops to 3g in stores and pretty low signal at home that goes back and fourth between 3g and 4g.
Good signal full bars outside and it drops to 3g when u walk into stores noticed this in multiple towns.

I have a year left on my unlimited contract with verizon if they ever switch me to a limited data plan ill leave. do they care maybe not but i am not gonna watch a youtube video then run to see where my data limit is on a damn widget for $29.99 a month data. its insane to me that people are willing to do this.
i dont use alot of data maybe 4gb a month my moms line uses about 2gb were both unlimited but its the idea that we would have to worry about how much data were using when i pay more for my phones internet then i do on my homes internet i shouldn't have to think about it. its my account with 3 lines i pay for my moms line fyi.
sorry i went off topic ;P

My city is on the list. I woke up to my phone showing 4g for the first time ever. Weird.

Fir business, I use at least 50gb a month.
