Make notes if you wish, ie: Samsung SCH-LC11 in Denver, CO

I chose this service because of its simplicity in sharing the results and with all replies using the same service, the consistency should be fair enough.

Wow! PJNNC284, I just left Holden Beach yesterday from vacation. Drove in to Wilmington to get a Thunderbolt, Xoom and Samsung 4G hotspot. Couldn't wait, had to have!

Test performed in my vehicle, moving at 40 MPH in Roswell, GA.

Not too shabby Verizon! Where else can we obtain these type of speeds?

How did you get an image in your post? I can't find a way to do that.

Thanks!

Note: tried a copy/paste for the image and looks fine but when I click "Post" I get an error that I am over the 20,000 character limit. Bummer.

You should be able to hit the icon above the post box that looks like a tree, choose From Another Site, Paste the link into the Image URL box and hit load image and then Insert image.

In Norman, OK I have been recording speed test of the network on my phone using the speedtest.net app. On the 20th of April there was a change in service. As documented here. This is a portion of my e-mailed cvs file from my phone:

Date ConnType Lat Lon Download Upload Latency ServerName InternalIp ExternalIp

4/20/2011 12:53 Cell 35.21073 -97.43962 20,170 22,670 108 Bixby, OK 10.190.24.162 166.249.193.103

Notice that the ConnType changed from Cell to Lte and the upload speed is below 5 mB/s. Verizon *611 is unable tell me the difference between Cell and Lte as the connection type and the speed change is obvious. Often in Norman and my residence outside of Norman I am in the 1.5 mB/s upload range. Both of these locations are well within the 4G service area mapped by Verizon. Even at the Verizon company store in Norman the upload speed isoften below 3 mB/s

This occured before the 4G outage at the end of April

This not in a 4G LTE area, but I am getting a really nice download speed in a 3G only area.

Anne,

Those are very good speeds for being 3G. Not that I am disputing your tests, but could you have been connected to a different Access Point? You might have been without even knowing or realizing it. An example, when you are at work you use there wireless connection aka Access Point, instead of using your Data Plan. Your phone could have been connected to something like that, or your phone could be configured to connect automatically within range of another AP.

I have been using Verizon 3G, and now 4G for many years in the Atlanta area. I have never seen numbers like that before! The best I would ever see on 3G EVDO would be about 2.1 to 2.2 on a good day and in a very good spot.

If all is correct on your end, good job and consider yourself lucky!

Have a great one!

Ann154

Oh it was definitely on the 3G network. There is this one spot I have been getting these speeds and the test was done in a moving vehicle at 65 mph. I don't understand how and barely believe it either.

Ann154

Same area within a mile as the earlier one I posted but the this test was done a few weeks earlier. I was still stuck on the EDVO Rev A after the LTE outage during this test.

Alright man, I just gave you some much needed love! It's nice to get some love every now and then. I wish I would get some love sometimes. LOL

All seriousness, thanks for doing this thread. It's one of the best and I know where I can always go for some good comparisons.

Why doesn't your speeds show on here when you do a Speed Wave? I would think it would automaticlly show them. I guess I have to go back and load them myself.

Never mind, I just re-read your 1st post and was not following the instructions. Imagine that!

Here is my highest score in my report. There is an area that I pass by everyday that I had happened to run a test. They must have some strong towers in that area. I have stopped and gotten out of my vehicle and looked all around but I can't see it that's for sure.

Here is yesterday.

Good Lord! I'd build a house right there.

toughbook

Know doubt! It's right at an exit ramp off of a hwy. If you care to look at it put in this address 1100 Tuxedo Drive, Roswell, Ga 30075. Then move over to GA 400 and Holcomb Bridge, it's right at that exit. Maybe someone can find a tower over there if they have a program that will show them. I used to have one, but I have no idea what it is now.

toughbook

This is from my home. I subscribe to AT&T Uverse with there fastest speed. Look at the differnce in the Latency numbers. The download spped is decent, but the upload is embarrasing to them if you ask me.
