Accessories Speed Test Results

Just wondering what type of results everyone has been getting using the Speedtest.net App?

Over Wifi (Verizon FIOS FTW):

~14Mbps Down
~3Mbps Up

Over 3G:

~.45Mbps Down
~.40 Mbps Up

No 4G in my area (North Jersey) :(

3G speeds seem low no?


**Edit***
Whoops posted in accessories by accident..please move!!
 
4G (In Northern VA) with 2 4G bars and 6 bars for signal: Peaked 2.5 Mbps down, Averaged 1 Mbps down, peaked 1.5 Mbps up, averaged .9 Mbps up
3G (In Northern VA) with 6 bars for signal: Peaked 1.26 Mbps down, Averaged 1.05 Mbps down, peaked .8 Mbps up, averaged .72 Mbps up

and later i checked my battery usage and the speedtest used 6% of the battery to run like 10 tests (5 tests 4G, 5 tests 3G)

Indoors at work, 2-3 bars 3G:
478 down / 705 up

Man, my cable connection is only RATED for 768 up... maybe I should start uploading through my phone!
 
At work, about 500kb down, at home with better 3G, almost 1mb down.

My wifi however was pulling 12mb down which is the upper rating of my comcast, nice!

Came home today and must have tapped the 4G widget when scrolling through my screens. Saw the 4G icon showing up top but was only showing a poor signal. Hit the Speedtest shortcut and got 2mbps download and 1.2 upload, went outside and got 3.75 download and 2.1 upload. Not that I plan on using it at home, my Comcast wi-fi gets 12-14 download and over 3 upload. I'm in the East End of Henrico,VA.
