Re: Unable to use 4G when USB tethering?

When running the speedtest.net app, i see anywhere from 3-6mb down, usually latency runs from 70ms upwards to 300ms depending. Unfortunately, being tethered, it's just not fast enough...compared to Comcast or other broadband connection. I am sure some of the bandwidth is being used by all the apps running on the phone, but cannot imagine that Sprint's hotspot service could ever provide more than semi dialup speeds...in my opinion.

Downloading a few torrents, browsing a bit, ect...never seeing more than about 200kB/s down and about 50 up.
