Guest randomelements Posted September 5, 2006 Report Share Posted September 5, 2006 The site most people are using is http://www.bandwidthplace.com/speedtest/ - give that a go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest RossDargan Posted September 5, 2006 Report Share Posted September 5, 2006 I love this place - thanks for the blazingly quick reply! ... am I right in my thoughts about being entitled to HSDPA as well? Cheers Ross Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest RossDargan Posted September 5, 2006 Report Share Posted September 5, 2006 The site most people are using is http://www.bandwidthplace.com/speedtest/ - give that a go. 497.08k - 1 mb file in 16.9 seconds - thats not too bad is it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest randomelements Posted September 5, 2006 Report Share Posted September 5, 2006 Yes, you are right - HSDPA does not require the WnWPro. The speed varies depending on signal strength, line quality etc. Ideally, the max you could get is 1.8 megabits per sec but most people can record 1.1 or 1.2 mbps. 497.08k does indicate that you've got HSDPA as it's more than a 3G speed but it might be an idea to do it in a different location as well - get an idea of where you can get the best signal/speed.

Guest emyllis Posted September 5, 2006 Report Share Posted September 5, 2006 How many of you find that the download starts really slowly e.g. 1 k for a few seconds before it suddenly kicks in and goes fast? Or is it just me? And do you find certain webpages really slow to access? Thanks for any feedback you can offer; (and I have HSDPA enabled) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest RossDargan Posted September 5, 2006 Report Share Posted September 5, 2006 I find that happens yes. might be worth looking at the thread to do with the proxy. it could be worth starting a new thread about this otherwise it may be over looked. cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest NikLP Posted September 6, 2006 Report Share Posted September 6, 2006 I find that happens yes. might be worth looking at the thread to do with the proxy. it could be worth starting a new thread about this otherwise it may be over looked. cheers Without wishing to sound lazy, if anyone finds this and then looks there they might (like me) want to know if this proxy business relates to Orange as well as TMo? :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
