What are your WiFi speeds with your Note 7? - Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion

No matter what i do I can only get 65Mbits (10Meg) per second (and thats on 5Ghz) Is this the max speed the phone can handle? I have 150Mbit per second internet connection.

Im good here...

How did you attach your screenshot, I'm trying to add mine and can't find an option to add an attachment.

NEed to be a bit more specific....
Airplane mode on, then wifi on, speed test, should usually get you 80mbps or higher..
The real test is doing a SMB or internal network transfer... can only get 5-8MB if I am lucky...
First phone was 500k for internal SMB. Speed test always shows great speed going out, but never on a local network..

My speed is super ok WiFi up 380 / down 411 Mbps

I get the advertisex ISP speed (120mpbs) using the speedtest app.
SMB I just about get 1 MB/s
Are you getting 8 MBytes/s ie 64 mbps? I would be very happy that. I warch videos by running the straight of a network drive, the get choppy.

[Q] Low download speed with Internet Connection Sharing?

Anyone test their speeds using Internet Connection Sharing? I did a bandwidth test from the phone and got 8.9 Mbits download and 3.6 Mbits upload. Then I then did a test from my laptop and I got 3.5 Mbits upload but my download would not go above 0.6 Mbits. Anyone else noticed this problem?
This is not slow, hsdpa gives 7.2 Mbps speeds only so expected

This phone is capable of 14.4 Mbps, not just 7.2 Mbps. My Carrier is capable of 21 Mbps. This was not the issue. The issue was getting over 8 Mbit/s download speeds on the Titan, but when using Internet Connection Sharing the speed would not be greater them 0.6 Mbit/s. This was tested right after the initial test. The upload speed was very similar though.
As is my understanding, you will never achieve the same speeds when using ICS.
When your phone is communicating with the internet, it is dealing with one lot of data being sent and one lot of data being returned.
But when connecting your computer via your phone, your phone has to take that data from your computer, then pass it on. So it is dealing with one lot of data to/from your computer, and another lot of data (the same data!) to/from the internet - So you are doubling the amount of work the phone does. Your phone only has the one radio chip for this data, so it has to alternate between all the incoming and outgoing data.
You get the same slow-down on home wifi networks if you use a wifi repeater.

I understand that it will be less, but to go from over 8 Mbits on the phone to 0.6 Mbits on my laptop is more then what one should expect as a penalty for connecting thru the phone.
Even with your example of using a wifi repeater the bandwidth is only halved, and that is because the link is using the same frequency band over both hops. In the case of the phone, Internet Connection Sharing is acting like a home router with the cell frequency side the equivalent of the wan port and the software is providing NAT to clients connected on the 2.4ghz wifi connection side so there is no penalty for using the same frequency band.
As I also stated the upload from the phone and the upload from my laptop are the same, around 3.5 Mbits. What I was asking is if other people have had this same discrepancy when using Internet Connection Sharing. Even if the results from just the phone were ignored, the fact that I only got 0.6 Mbits download vs 3.5 Mbits upload thru the phone tells me something is not working properly.
If anyone is seeing this discrepancy between upload and dowload speeds with Internet Connection Sharing let me know.

Have tried same SIM different phone? Different SIM same phone?
It could well be your provider!

[Q] tethering speeds while traveling

I use wireless tether on my sense based custom rom and lately I've been doing a lot of tethering, when I'm in a fixed place like my hotel last week, I got great speeds 6-10 mbps on LTE, but if I'm moving, say pn a bus like I am now or the the backset of a taxi, speeds drop drastically whether on a 4G or 3G connection I get approximately 200 - 400 kbps, I understand that speeds while moving with a mobile broadband connection will be slower, but I'm interested in what speeds others get and their rom / tether app used. 400kbps just seems excessively slow for 4G even though I'm moving.
It may be the tethering app just did a test on 4G and got 9.5 down and 3 up, interested in others experiences
[update]
already solved, took my laptop out of power saving mode and I got 16 down and 4 up, it must be a setting in power managerment / wifi settings
Never use tethering but when I take the bus to school I don't lose any 4gspeed or even go to 3g it stays in 4G, but I think my city has good 4G coverage

wifi speed question

So I understand the transformer prime has wifi issues. My question is why is the upload speed unaffected?
For example when I am about 50 feet away from my router I get a download speed of .5 mbps but I get a upload speed of 5mbps.
My total connection speed is 40mbps down and 5 up.
In that same spot I used my iPhone 4 and had no issues with with upload or download.
So why is upload unaffected but download is?

Verizon Fios wifi download speeds

Hey guys, I have fios with 50/25 mbps I can get around 40 with my laptop but my note is getting low teens. I switched from a wep security to wpa2 security whichever increased my wifi on my laptop but not on my phones (note 2 and ssg3).
Any ideas how to increase this? Am I missing a setting when connecting to wifi? At the moment, my 4g is faster than my wifi.
Upload speeds are fine... Actually higher than my download speeds. Seems like something is restricting my download speed.
Thanks in advance.

I have FiOS as well and encounter the same "problem...". My chrombook gets above 40 Mbps and my Note 2 gets around 18-25 even standing next to my router...I just think its the way it is to be honest...I really don't know but just wanted to share that I'm seeing the same thing here...it really doesn't inhibit my experience at all 18-25 Mbps is perfectly fine for cell phone downloads etc.

Same set up here...with similar results. I did some research on this as my ipad2 (which is now in a drawer thanks to the Note 2 BTW) wasn't getting anywhere near the speed I would have expected despite it supposedly being N compatible (my lenovo laptop gets 45 Mbps down all the time). Best answer I could find is that not all wireless radios are equal and can't handle the same speeds.
I have a 25 download connection on FIOS, and am sitting in my living room about ten feet from my router. I just ran a test on my laptop and phone via speedtest.net, and got 24/5 on the laptop and 25/6 on the Note 2. Initially I was going to respond to your post and say I am used to the same result you are seeing, but I just proved myself wrong.
When I'm in other parts of the house however, I do tend to see more of a performance degradation on the phone vs. the laptop...I don't have any exact data at the moment since I'm feeling too lazy to walk upstairs and repeat the test, but I do know the falloff happens more rapidly on the phone with distance from the router.
This is what I get on my Comcast 50/15 connection.
Desktop hardwired: 59Mbps down / 12Mbps up
Desktop wireless: 55Mbps down / 12Mbps up
Note 2: 40Mbps down / 16Mbps up
My desktop on wireless connects at 144Mbps, while my Note 2 only connects at 72Mbps. Both are within 4' of the router. Both using the same SpeedTest.net server.
I've noticed a huge difference in WiFi speeds between the different radios, the one that had given me the best spotted on WiFi is VRAMC3. The one that gives me the best speed on LTE is L4. The speed definitely differs from which radio you flash, that's why I wish Samsung would give our devs access to their radio tools and let us build our own. I guarantee if they did we wouldn't see this kind of crap.

S9 plus wifi speeds on 5Ghz

Hi.
What wifi speeds is the galaxy S9 plus capable of. I have Gigabit broadband and the max speed I can get on the 5Ghz is 160mbps.
The router from provider isn't the best
Will I get much higher speeds if I upgraded my router or purchased a wireless access point connected to 1gb LAN port and access point capable of 1300mbps on 5Ghz?
Thanks
I have 500Mbps from my provider plus custom router(DIR-882) AC2600 MU-MIMO. And this is what I can get(400Mbps) from room next to my router(3m + wall/door) : http://www.speedtest.net/my-result/a/4290259062
I've gotten up to about 530mbps once in a while. More typically just under 500.
You need a high end router in order to get higher speeds over WiFi
Try to change to a not frequented channel and set the Bandwith to 80MHz.
I can get 800Mbit/s when nobody other is using the WiFi.
Allways 866Mbps guys.
Tp-Link Vr900
But when i send videos to the nas usually the speed is 40mb/s
Maybe your drive in the NAS can only write with 40MB/s. Remember, that 40MB/s are 320Mbit/s.

I think that with 1+6 i was writing with 50-60mb/s.
Also my nas can write with 1gbit connection (lan) 100mb/s.
Do you have any sort of an extra firewall on your phone?

My S9+ will connect via 5GHz to my Netgear R8500 at a LAN speed of 1083Mbps - but you have to be within 3m/10ft to get that speed. It falls back to 866Mbps pretty quickly if you are only just a little further away.
Real-world download/throughput performance will be lower.
