Cingular EDGE Speed Test
Just for the fun of it, I am speed testing Cingular EDGE using SpeakEasy Speed Test based in Los Angeles, CA. The speeds that I got are…
First try result:
Download Speed: 199 kbps (24.9 KB/sec transfer rate)
Upload Speed: 88 kbps (11 KB/sec transfer rate)
Second try result:
Download Speed: 188 kbps (23.5 KB/sec transfer rate)
Upload Speed: 88 kbps (11 KB/sec transfer rate)
The download speed is reasonable because it is a little above the advertised speed of 75-135 kbps by Cingular. Feels like two to three times the speed of a good old dialup modem. I would perform another speed test when I got a chance. Maybe after a fresh boot, I could have gotten better numbers…
