LTE Speeds - UK :)

[gregmcc]

Thought I'd just rub it in a bit :twisted: - just had LTE enabled on the O2 network in the UK.

Getting some great speeds!

Nothing spectacular enough to write home about...

Looks like throttling to me.

 

[gregmcc]

Erm - I thought it was good.

[gregmcc]

Well considering that this is what Nigeria is doing, I wouldnt call that UK speed test special

Greg, not *too* shabby, but I hit 18Mpbs in Cape Town about 2 months ago on Vodacom's HSPA network... http://speedtest.ookla.com/result/2437194954.png

Was just going to say. He might be having tons of gigs for cheap where we pay a premium for it... :-(

 

[gregmcc]

Its around £22 for 20Mbps (line + dsl) - totally unlimited. The provider states in their T&C - we will never throttle or shape you no matter how much you download

I recently did a tour around western Europe.

I used the 3G wifi at the hotels.

UK I reached 14mbps

Frankfort airport in Germany 14mbps

Switzerland 17 mbps

Italy: to slow to read, as slow as edge.

France about 9mbps if I remember correctly.

At home I get 5-11 mbps on 8ta 3G



But I've seen 8ta LTE in cresta reach 39mbps. YouTube hd videos buffed instantly, web pages..hu!...smoked.


Seriously for LTE that speed is very poor, LTE at ful potentiall will reach 300mbps.

I cant remember if it was China or Japan but one of them reached the half gig per second barrier.

Interesting to note that we have world class speeds in the mobile arena. Actually, we seem to be ahead of the curve...wow. Can it be true?

Is this post for real?
