Hi forum,
I have noticed that my HTC Desire only reaches 2mbit max upload no matter which WIFI network I take.
I know the 3G upload max is 2mbit but is the phone's max upload regardless of wifi or 3g connect also 2mbit? is this hard capped in the desire and/or Android 2.1 or a driver issue?
Anybody have the same issues or can shed some light on this issue?
Or you know, it might also come down to the fact that your internet connexion doesn't have faster upload speed that 2Mbps.
You never know
A device cannot upload faster than it can read datas you know... you're probably using a class 2 SD card? That's capped at 2 mb/s.

I forgot to mention that I tested it on both a 60/6 internet connection at home, on my internal network and at the office wifi network 100/100mbit.
A mate of mine with a desire had the same results while 2 other mates using an Iphone had 14mbit up at the office.

If I download at max 2mb/s to my SD you are right, but I downloaded at around 15mbit if this was the SD card limit I would guess the upload should be the same if the network allowed it.

Nonsense! My class 2 Sandisk 16gb MicroSD card has a sustained read speed of around 20mb/s and a sustained write speed of 7.5mb/s.
The class of a card is not an "upper" cap, it's the *minimum* sustained write speed.

Dave

Then you might be onto something? I cannot try it myself, I've got no access to a connection greater that 1Mbps (yea, the UK has crap network speeds).
Anybody with wifi access with more then 2mbit upload, that can test it with an application like speedtest.net?
I just tested it with speedtest.net Amsterdam Server,
@ Desire: Download 13,35 and Upload 2,35 Mbit
@ pc: Download 58,07 and Upload 2,98 Mbit
Some more tests:
Desire WIFI 54g @home 60/6 speedtest.net: 14m - 15m/1.5m - 2m
Laptop WIFI 54g @home 60/6 speedtest.net: 20m - 30m/5m - 5.5m
Desktop 1g @home 60/6 speedtest.net: 40m - 50m/5m - 5.5m
Looks like the wireless in the desire is not the fastest one, 15 down is enough but I don't understand why it's limited to 2 up only.
On a 20/2 connection, I had 6.8Mbps dl and 1.1Mbps ul 60ms ping for about two weeks until April 5th. Ever since, I'm capped to 2.9Mbps dl and 0.1Mbps ul 240ms ping, max. Same test servers. No idea why (no hardware change since). I get higher with HSPDA when I leave town now.

So no heavy users here that can confirm or deny the max wifi upload speed of the desire?

According to Speedtest.net application maximum I got 2.3 Mbit/sec.
On my desire was speedtest on www.merac.sk 7,8mbit down and 3,6mbit up. Wifi router 54mbit with connectivity 60/60mbit optical.
On next test 7,2/5,3 mbit. So no 2mbit upload limit here.

Good to hear that!! weird that I can't get mine above the 2 then!
My internet is too slow (1 Mbit /sec up) to compare; but this got me interested in trying something similar on my WiFi LAN.
I used SwiFTP Server for Android @ the Desire, and an FTP client for Windows @ the PC, all using WiFi.
Results:
- copy a 5 MByte file from from /sdcard/mp3 to the PC -> 8 Mbit / sec
- copy a 5 MByte file from from /system/app to the PC -> 9 Mbit / sec
- copying the same file twice from anywhere, the 2nd time the transfer rate would go up to 11 Mbit / sec probably due to read caching.
So over WiFi it can do 11 Mbit / sec up***
***Of course this doesn't say if that limit is imposed by the Desire, the Tele2 WiFi router, or even the laptop...
For comparison, I also mounted the phone as an USB drive.
Copying one file from /sdcard/mp3 to the PC over USB: too fast for a good result.
Copying ~400 MByte of files from /sdcard/mp3 to the PC over USB: sustained copy speeds of about 60 to 70 Mbit / sec.
YMMV
HTC WILDFIRE VS IPOD VS PC on FIBRE
It seems that if you try to test using browser it will give much slower results - try downloading sppednet app from market place.
I have bt infinty - 40Mbps down 10Mbps up.
HTC Wildfire using the browser at speedtest.net gave me 1.95Mbps down and 0.34Mbps up
However after installing the speedtest.net app i achieved 10.85Mbps down and 1.30Mbps up
The actual results for the PC with IE8 at speedtest.net were 37.48Mbps down and 8.24Mbps up
The Ipod Touch 8GB acheived 5.70Mbps down and 6.84 upload
GET THE APP !
What kind of speed are u getting from your defy?
Uploaded with ImageShack.us
wow
never got such speed
although I cant complain about browsing speed
maybe somethings wrong with the servers in germany
Still using 2g and get ~100kbps
But I have wifi most of the time and get 7~8Mbps.
This download is usual maximum for wifi G-mode
hi, my wifi connection speed decreased (compared to 3g and even the speed tests show that it's 7.6 mbits) after updating to 2.3.3 (not rooted)
what settings do i have to change on my router to get back on track?
thanks in advance..
Is your home computer speed slow too?
Sent from my XPlay using XDA App.
no it's fine, i tried the phone on another modem and the wifi wasn't slow.
So i tried to make a several calls from my skype when I was connected to the cellular internet and the quality was very poor
I wanted to know is it my provider disease or it is something global?
I think it is your provider.
Personally I use skype only when I'm connected to Wifi and the quality is very good.
On my 3G data connection, VOIP is not allowed.
@++
On WiFi i have a grate quality but the problem is with the 3G i have a delay and sometimes the other side cant hear me
Depends what speed you are on.
You need at least 3.5g for it to work well.
Sent from my Desire HD using xda premium
You should have least 5 MB synchronous for it to work good..
IP telephone need a lot of bandwidth in both directions
My provider is horrible, so its not very good, however, for some reason viper works better for me
Hellos Folks,
I am using ATT version of Galaxy S3.
Although its great device but I am facing 2 issues:
1) Low download speeds as per the tests I have done so far via speetest.net app
I have done around 25-30 tests at different times and the average speed on 4g LTE was 6 Mbps, I have read online that the people get speeds upto 20 Mbps, Is anyone else facing this issue ?
2) Video\Voice calling not working via Google Talk, Skype, Nimbuzz
Whenever I try voice\video call it does not work, it always gives a message 'To make voice\ video calls you need to be connected to Wi-Fi'
Did anybody else got this error.
Need your help guys.
