maybe a bad hardware!

suggestion for you...
i might suggest you .. start posting your questions about your new phone .. Desire .. in the Desire sub-forums. you will get better responses..
 
Which browser are you using?
WiFi and 3G the same?
Did it ever work well?
settings>Wireless & networks>Mobile network settings>Data enabled?
 
hi guys,
thanks - sorry - please can the mod move this to desire sub forum if poss

i think it worked ok the first couple of times but now is terrible all the time

ive cleared cache and all other data - rebooted phone - which helped the first time i used internet afte that but then back to normal slowness and errors :(

yes im pretty sure ive got data connection otherwise it wouldnt connect at all ?

not sure about quicker on wifi - but will check that

btw: im using a hspda (think that is right letters!) connection - which i think should be faster ?

cheers
dan
 
Hi all
Right. WiFi is def quicker but you would expect it to be I guess ?

Yes I have download apps via non WiFi. That works well actually

Cheers

Well if you are getting an http error, that usually means you dont have a connection.

Right. WiFi is def quicker but you would expect it to be I guess ?

In most cases, wifi will be much faster. Unless the wifi connection you are using is attached to a slow internet conenction.
 
Interestingly the browser seems to function better on wifi
Connection. Guess that could be due to it struggling for data
On 3g ?

But if i had no mobile data surely market place would fail?

oh - jsut done speed test - nice app btw - and results are confusing

The reason I asked about the speed test was that those apps are IP based and don't use DNS lookup tables. Based on those numbers you are definitely getting 3G speeds, but hsdpa could be faster. The WiFi seems slow .... what kind internet service you got there? Dial-up? ;)

Next I'd try

Network Ping - Android app on AppBrain

and ping out to a valid URL like Google to make sure the names are resolving correctly. Try a few different ones, including the URLs that have been giving you problems.
 
ahh - right - yes could be - hopefully that will be it - shall cal O2 and get em to rush things along a bit :)
 
poo! new sim didnt sort it :( got to do a hard reset say O2 - so now trying to sort backup :/ hey ho

Here's hoping the reset works. I'd setup the internet connection first and make sure it works. Then with each subsequent configuration, test the browser speed (using WiFi if you need to be concerned about data usage) and if you see a marked drop, you'll find the problem.

If that doesn't work, try stomping your feet and holding your breath. That always used to work for me ;)
 
Ah. Shop had set it to wap apn but settings o2 just sent me say mobile.o2.co.uk
And with most of other details blanked out.

Does seem quicker
