Re: How to know when in Rev A?

Folks,

I changed the EVDO setting from ENABLED to DISABLED and my internet download speeds increased dramatically! I know some of you are saying that changing that setting shouldn't increase download speeds, but it did for me. When I had it set to ENABLED, it was like watching paint dry to load pages. Whenever I used PIE, Netfront 3.5, or Opera 9.5 (new official beta as of a couple of days ago) to check download speeds on various sites like DSL reports and others, the speeds were in the 200-350 kbits per second rate for downloads. Ever since I changed it to DISABLED, my speeds are in the 700-980 kbits per second range if not higher consistantly. But if download speeds are not a good indication, the fact that the pages are loading way faster says that changing the setting to DISABLED works for some of us.

So if your data speeds are slow, give it a shot. The best thing that could happen is that your speeds will improve.
