I have the stock 1.03.15F radio and get similar slow speeds.

Have you guys tried the Telus Radio?

Re: Touch Pro tethering speeds suck...
 

Well, my tethering speed on my pro is pretty damn solid. When I am at work I tether quite a bit and most of the time I will have anywhere from no bars to 2 bars of signal and I still get 2meg down and about 350k up easily.

Re: Touch Pro tethering speeds suck...
 

No...I really don't think there would be significant difference for me using a different radio b/c I get a really strong Sprint signal as it is. I obviously can't speak for everyone else though.

I've noticed pretty slow tethering speeds as well. I'm currently on stock ROM and stock radio... haven't run an actual test, but will when I get home and will post an update. Surely there's gotta be a reason because on the device itself my speeds seem pretty fast (anyone know of a good speed test to run on the actual phone?)

Edit: Found one - http://dslreports.com/mspeed

w/ a 1MB test file (you have to choose a smaller file, get the error that its too fast and then click the link to choose a larger file) I ran it 3 times, got measured at 544, 1087, and then 750kbps (which averages out to 793kbs).

I'm in Austin, TX and at the time of the test (while at work) I had 3-4 bars inside my building. So, looks like its the device itself, not just a result of the tethering... guess it seems so much faster because I'm usually loading mobile sites on the phone vs full sites while tethered. :P

Just did a Speedtest and I am using the Telus Radio....

Damn...maybe I'll give that a shot in the next few days.

How does the Telsu radio effect your battery life. I know there is a whole thread on this topic but the speeds on your phone are nice.

Re: Touch Pro tethering speeds suck...
 

Haha, ya I got me some speed, but i have no idea if it is because of the radio or not.....
BTW, Did you change your name?

Edit: should have looked at your SIG LOL


Honestly I don't really know, My battery lasts me all day with moderately heavy use....With the Stock radio/rom it didn't....But I am know on a custom rom(mightys) and telus radio, I haven't tried it with the stock radio...

On a side note, i can't wait until my phone gets speed like this(Home ISP)

But for now 2757 down and 584 up will have to do:geek:

Re: Touch Pro tethering speeds suck...
 

I'm going to switch it here in a day or two to see if there is any difference for me. Yes, I did change my name on here. I'll post my results after I switch to the Telus radio.
