T-Mobile: Mobile WiMax A 'Niche Play' → Tmo is already faster

I usually get 6-7 meg dl speeds wireless tethering my T-Mo GalaxyS Vibrant right now.
It's only HSDPA (although I am in a HSPA+ area).

No other carrier can touch that....they aren't even close.
In fact, my connection is too fast for it to work here at dslreports....it tells me to select a larger file size when I have chosen the largest available (you guys wanna fix that ?) then it says my connection is too fast to measure accurately.

T-Mo doesn't need to even bother....it's the other guys that need to play catch up.

Instead of using this test:
»/mspeed

use this BBR test:
»i.dslr.net/iphone_speedtest.html
it works on any smartphone browser, not just iphones. Choose the 3g or wifi options

there's been rumor speedtest floating around about Verizon LTE reaching over 25+ mbps in speed test, of course these are pre-deployment result and not yet confirmed

Some on the Clear forum have posted up to 25Mbps for WiMAX. I typically get 10-15Mbps on my fixed Clear modem and 6-10Mbps on my EVO phone in same spot (so the phone is the bottleneck, not the service).

It all just depends on the implementation and the conditions. You need lots of backhaul, spectrum and enough sites to deliver the higher speeds. We can talk 40Mbps+ all day long but if Tmob doesn't deliver the backhaul, that 40M is just marketing gibberish. And do they have enough spectrum to even deliver it to a couple users at once?

I had the same experience with T-Mobile and dslreports speed test "issue".

the DSLR speedtest SUCKS! it NEVER gives you the correct answer.

Lies.

the issue just isn't on the phone test its even on the actual computer test as well. it's like doing a cable speedtest on VZ's speedtest. of course it will be flawed to show that VZ's product is faster.

sure. must have been talking to others that rely in it as well eh?
