Not really specific to a GNexus, but as the server will be used as hosting for different Gnexus projects I would like to get some testing help.
I have created a 200meg testfile, and all I need you guys to do is download it.
ROUND #1
The link to the file is:
http://kokeilu2.tentacle.fi/~inf/android/testfile.img
So please, if you have bandwith and some spare time, download it and provide me with the following if you would:
Location where u live (country is enough or state if in usa):
Your Internet connection speed:
Maximum speed & Average speed (of the file download):
Thanks for advance to all who can use their time to test this for me!
970 kB/s average.
South Carolina, USA.
10down/10up fiber connection (work )
Almost maxing out my connection. I'll try it when I get home on my 50/5 connection.
your file took 10min to download
im on 10down/1up
dallas texas
900 kb/s average at 2:00pm
It started downloading at about 1200 KB/s but after 30% it dropped to 550-600 KB/s.
I live in Bulgaria and my connection is 50 Mbps down and 7 Mbps up.
It very steadily rose to a max of 740kB/s. Prob took 7 mins to download.
UK, 50Mb down, 1.5Mb up
about 10 minutes.
Cox Internet
Mesa AZ
Around 10down/6up
ROUND #2
OK Thank you guys!
If you would help a little more and test from a another location, link:

Is this better or worse for you?
Thanks!

This is strange, I know that the device's speed should be up to 1.8mbps...while I do a test in my place I only get 700-850 kilobits/sec never can go over 1mbit and when I am right under the tower sometimes I get 1mbit..
While I tried sierra ac860 aircard which is also capable attaining 1.8mbits it attains around 1.4-1.5mbit in my place...
I tried many diff Radio Roms but no luck... I guess the TYTN is not 1.8mbits capable if in the same exact place with two different devices I test..one gets very close speeds to specifications and the other gets less than half speed
Dude, remember that 1.8mbit is not only in laboratory conditions. Weather, location, your concrete walls all affect the speed. Your aircard just has a better more powerful antenna and as such better reception which translates to higher speeds.
Also the 1.8mbps is for raw data, not end user data. You are not just passing porn through that bandwith, you are also transporting the infrastructure for that data to be understood by your computer, like the data packets for example. So the connection will aways feel slower, even if you were hitting some higher numbers.

My aircard doesnt have an antenna thats sticking out...it could be compared pretty much to TYTN, and I am perfectly getting 1.5mbit with it through my concrete walls... FINE the overhead takes 300 kilobits... so all added up its ~ 1.8mbit... TYTN is not even performing close to it.
Im seeing around 1.1mbit/s with full reception, in uni that is...tethered to several masts i assume.
Most of the time i see useable around 600k...HSDPA and wnw+ rocks.
yeah, the most i get is about 1.1m in surrey. i dont get as much as this back in london
I get 1.4Mbit peaks (1.2 continuous) usable rate when inside my room (HSDPA and 2 signal bars, base station must be about 300m and a few walls away, both routed through WiFi or USB).
Pretty amazing stuff.

How do you test the speed?
the highest i've ever gotten to was 1.1mbps, that was with full signal.
1.1 to 1.2 is about usual.
i get pretty much 1.2 at work, at the house, its not even close but thats only cos i got a pretty weak signal.
tried differnt radios but none have really improved signal,
best two radios for me where 1.54.00.10 and 1.43 in the uk that is...

Simply download a big file. I was even running Bittorrent @ 140kB/s along with internet radio streaming at 16kB/sec the other day. I have friends who get less than that on their home internet connection
Here in holland i get with 3 signal bars 150 kb sec with downloading from newsgroups
Speedtest sites
Try these ones:
Magma Speedtest
Speedtest
DSLReports Speedtest
Hope it helps!

WOW..
i am barely getting anything over 600 kbs, on a side note when using magma.ca speedtest, i am consistently getting readings higher then when using speedtest.tmc.net...??
what could be the probable cause for this discrepancy..?
Discrepancies
Depends on distance and how overloaded their servers are. I find speedtest.magma.ca to be the most accurate for anything under 5mb.

i've got around 1,3-1,5mbps in indonesia
are they slow for anyone else ?
Well the ROMs are the same 140 MB files you are downloading off of here, and since you are probably on a 1Mb/s connection on you phone (a generous average, I think) they should be taking around 20 minutes.
edit: this is a preemptive "I am not a mathematician" in case I did bad math
Do it while on Wifi
I have used and tested different modems on my phone using official Gingerbread leak EH06 Rom. For each modem downloaded I ran Speedtest app three times.
Afterwards I ran Xtremelabs Speedtest app twice to make sure that speedtest results weren't B.S. Then, I loaded a full webpage on the browser.
Testing was done during Daytime and Nighttime for each modem Except EH06.
I only have daylight results for EH06.

Looks like EF10 was the best.... I didnt use it that much..... Was it stable enough to keep?
Damn, might consider doing that pesky OTA anyone wanna persuade me not to?

I had gps Problems with EF10. DK28 gave me better results And much faster 4g.
jat255 said:
So far I've had the best success with EC05... The gps locks almost immediately and I haven't had any of the stability problems that I had with the GB modems.
I'll be on that one until the official GB hits.
FWIW, I'm in the DC area, so that may affect things.

I was in Slidell, LA when I performed this comparision test. over there the 3g speeds are acceptable.
However, here in baton rouge the 3g sucks badly. I get about 25-100 kbps during the daytime but during the night time the 3g speeds are normal.
We do have 4g although unofficially the speeds aren't all that amazing but its good enough.
I will perform another modem comparison test over here in baton rouge using both 4g and 3g including the new EH17 modem.
+1
I approve of this thread. It's nice to see a comparison chart!
eh06 works best for me in milwaukee
i test my phones download speed with http://www.bandwidthplace.com/ and i get some fast dowloads 10 to 40 mbpps. it one instance i got over 42. it kind of makes me suspect of the results.
when i tether and test my speeds, i usually get about 5 to 8, averaging 5 mostly. is tethering usually that slow compared to what the phone can download itself.
what kind of speeds are you averaging when tethering and how reliable do you think http://www.bandwidthplace.com/ is
I would use Speedtest.net (they also have an app for Android). The speeds are much more realistic.
Yeah dude.. I'd say to use speed test. Net because the results from the page you linked are showing my GS2 downloading at 54mbps while speed test shows 17... That's a huge difference..

+1 Speedtest. I've never got anything anywhere close to 40 Mbps on my phone, and I've tested on 4 different networks in 4 different countries.
I have a 2nd gen fire tv. When hooked directly to my router via ethernet cable, I am only getting about 4-5 Mbps down (and 1.5—2 Mbps over WiFi).
Meanwhile on my laptop (also directly connected to router) I'm getting about 35 Mbps, and around 20 Mbps on my phone over WiFi.
The numbers above were both in megabits per second, according to Speedtest.net.
My ping was also much higher on the Fire TV (between 200 and 300 ms on the FireTV, around 20ms on my laptop and phone.)
Is there something I'm doing wrong that is throttling my speed on my Fire TV? Or is the Fire TV not capable of faster data speeds?
Thanks in advance for any help you guys can provide!
The AFTV2 is limited to a 100mbit port, so 100mbps / 8mbps/MBps = ~12.5 MB/s theoretical max throughput... though still less than your reported outcome.

He most likely meant 4-5mbps which is I think about 700 KB/s

Welp, this is embarrasing.
I saw an archived thread on this forum where someone was having a similar problem with speedtest results on their fire tv. The OP of that thread figured out what the problem was: trying to run the speedtest via the Speedtest.net website slowed their results due to use of web-embedded Flash. I followed the OP’s advice and sideloaded the android Speed Test app, and voila: a nearly constant 36 Mbps down.
So, I basically made a total noob mistake. Anyway, thanks for your assistance everyone! Hopefully others that have the same “problem” I did will see this thread at some point.
