WiFi tethering speed on Hero

[awenthol]

This is compared to my Touch Pro and Touch Pro 2 but I used my Hero for WiFi for the first time the other day. It's whatever WiFi tether for root app that comes with Fresh ROM.

I can peak around 100kb/s download (actual DL speed) which is what the TP/TP2 could do but more often than not it will go down to below 50kb/s and stay there/slowly creep to a crawl. TP/TP2 would run full speed all day long. Downloading on the phone runs fast (ie, when I save the latest fresh roms to my phone).

Is this just the way the Hero is, is it the app or is something up??
