HTC Touch Pro Wifi speeds

[xzr1tv]

I look at the Communications...Settings...Wireless Lan...
SSID is correct.. connecting to home router (WRT54G)
Tx rate shows as 54 Mbps... the rated capablity of router...
However, Rx Rate shows as 1 Mbps....

It does not seem to be user changeable...
Other wireless devices when connected to same point, have a higher speed.

Router is connected to internet via DSL.... 3M Down / 768 UP...
Now I could logically say I could see the reverse showing on the phone...

I was referred to this site, to pickup the "...enable the 802.11g on the phone ", which I did. The above numbers did not change!

Any suggestions/ideas or is it 'working as designed'.

When I do 'speed tests' on Toast.net with large or small files, I only see speeds in the 400-700K range, and the phone is indicating I am in EVDO area.

TIA!

From my experience. EVDO preforms optimal when using your phone as a modem. For some reason, the phone never reports as high speeds.

I think the OP is worried about his WIFI connection, not the EVDO speed.

I am having the same issue. My up speed is 54Mbps, but down speed is 1Mbps - as shown on the Wireless Lan / settings screen.

The odd thing is if I make a change on the AP where it has to restart - when the TP reconnects for a moment it will be at 54mbps. But then it drops to 1 right away. I'm like 5 feet from the AP and I have tried channels 1/6/11 - still nothing higher than 1mbps.

Any ideas on why this would be? I need to try it out at school and see if I have the same problem.

Its reading 1 because there is no data being xfered between your phone and the AP. Start streaming music or loading a photo heavy site and then go to the page, it will then show different speeds.

Dang, right you are. Never noticed that it scales the speed depending on activity. Thank you!
