Caleo Global Moderator Posted April 27, 2013 Global Moderator Share Posted April 27, 2013 So, my connection @ home is ~10/1mbit, through Cox Cable. Haven't been upgraded in years to 'keep with the times', there's no progress being made for better speeds here. And then this: From my phone. Come on, how hard is it to provide decent speeds through a hardwired connection? I'm guessing this is a pretty common occurrence throughout the US; Stagnant cable ISPs with their monopolies.. not bothering to improve their networks to stay modern. How's your situation?

jasondefaoite Posted April 27, 2013 Share Posted April 27, 2013 Fiber connection. The LTE here in Singapore is pretty nice also. Speeds around 35Mb up and down. However I'm still on a non LTE phone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ßéár Posted April 27, 2013 Share Posted April 27, 2013 Lol I know that feeling, my phone LTE would get 40 down/up, my home internet is only ten down, .5 up lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackhearted Posted April 27, 2013 Share Posted April 27, 2013 It's the opposite way for me. But that's simply because it's hard for an home isp to manage to be slower than sprint. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LUTZIFER Posted April 27, 2013 Share Posted April 27, 2013 Yeah me too. Well download speeds are similar, but definitely way better upload speeds on phone compared to Cable Internet (SHAW) ,which sucks. If it weren't so expensive for the DATA plans on my cellphone, I'd just run it as a hotspot all the time, and run my computer threw it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jonathanwhite Posted May 20, 2013 Share Posted May 20, 2013 The speed of the internet really depends upon the network traffic in your area.If the traffic is higher ,there are chances for speed getting decreased.The mobile carriers in US are still working on a share basis.They used to share their networks for different carriers.So these things may affect the working of phone services and internet in your area.
