Just so everyone knows those speeds are megabits not megabytes. I like to use the kB (kilobyte) setting not Mb (megabit) or kb (kilobit) when downloading content on a pc you usually see speed in kB or MB (megabyte) never in Mb or kb. So it may be a good idea to standardize our speeds. I vote that we use speeds in kB. But I've noticed some post in kb and some in Mb. kB is a more known measurement IMHO

I average 250 - 350 kB but can get as much as 600 - 700 kB (4.8 - 5.6 Mb). For anyone wondering there are 8 bits in a byte.

Last 2 tests (in kB)
237.8 dwn - 47.7 up (1.9 Mb dwn)
259.8 dwn - 52.6 up (2.1 Mb dwn)

Around 300 kB is pretty good it's like a full song dl in under half a min

Ya but t-mobile charges you by megabytes used. If you log into my t-mobile, and look at your data usuage its based on megabytes. No?

yes you are correct. tmo goes by MB (megabytes) for billing. That's kinda the point I'm making, with using bytes not bits! The speed test app dose not display MB, however. They display only Kb (kilobit), Mb (megabit), and KB (kilobyte), so the closest to MB is KB because all you need to do is divide the number of KB/s by a thousand and you will have the MB/s. I'm just saying folks should avoid using any "bit" measurements because it confuses less seasoned users that all. That's why some people see a reading of 3.5 Mb and run around saying the are getting 3.5 megs, which is true I guess but usually when you hear the term "meg" it is referring to megabytes and trust me no one here is getting 3.5 MB period!

My throttle speed in 0.11 down and 0.19 up in Jax,fl. Is your speed with 4g speed?
