Re: 3g iphone wifi speed by the way (and I appreciate you trying this out) on your 3G phone over wifi, how fast does this image

load?
does it come in markedly slowly given your wifi speed, much more slowly than your PC manages it?
I'm trying to show this is a widespread problem (that US users may not notice on wifi seeing as most things are local). |

If I watch the download progress bar, it moves as fast on Safari 3.0 in 10.5.4 as it does on my 3G phone, over wifi. The image opens slightly slower though, because downloading gets paused for sub-second periods to wait for the phone to render what's been downloaded.
But much slower? Definitely not. |

| How fast? Because here on my 3g wifi it loads in two seconds and appears during that in two or three chunks and it's done..
I added a ?nnnn random number to make sure I wasn't seeing it load from the cache..
How long for you in the us, roughly? |

Jackson Heights, NY | perhaps they tweeked the tcp on the little bugger for edge/3g speeds and use the same settings on wifi... you would see suboptimal performance compared to a macbook for example on the same wifi network. Is the tcp tweaker application out for it yet?

said by enOehT:Per your request Master. ![]() Dude, that is very slow. Not the speed reported by the speed tests at all, and a fraction of the speed I can get on that (local) pic. So you have the same issue as I do: your 3g phone performs terribly on large files that are located far from you.. but a similar sized pic located near to you would be zippy, I wager. |
