v3G,

Any known reason why I am getting GPRS speeds on a HSDPA card in central Pretoria at the moment?

Though Pretoria shuts down at 4pm :confused:

Only saw your post now, are you still battling. Did not hear of any problems in Pta today, but was out of circulation most of the day.
 
Still like that this morning @ 04.52. Reason why I'm asking is its been like this for about 48 hours. Currently Telkom test is giving values around 61kb/s!

had my card for a month now and its great at home and kuk at the office.
at home i have 2 bars reception and am getting around 1.2 mbit iin the evenings. at my office the above test is the best ive ever seen. at the office i am 4 bars reception.
but as v3g said to me a couple weeks ago... it could be anything from what the laptop is standing on to etc...
my wifes standard 3g card is faster in my office...
oh well
 
Identical location as my earlier post, now with SE w900i on 3G. Ahhh, much better :)
