Thread: airtel 3g speed is low

When i activated 3G in my mobile for first time i got 90kb/s.but now get the not more than 5kb/s what is the problem can anyone help me.I live in coimbatore.thanks in advance

However for some reason, even though my Nokia N73 was 3G enabled, I still got slow EDGE speeds, not sure why.

After I got my Android phone, I experienced real 3G speeds of 3.5 Mbps, however the free 3G trial ended soon after a few days. Yet, when I set my phone to 3G mode post the trial, I get a constant speed of 500-800 Kbps, which is on my 2G Mobile Office plan priced at 98/month with a 2G free data usage limit.On occasions, it has also gone up to 2mbps as you can notice in the screenshot. While this isn’t really 3G speed, however isn’t it awesome to get half to one or two megabits of bandwidth at the price of an EDGE connection?

The speed makes web browsing, downloading apps and files, as well as watching YouTube videos a cinch. They load in a jiffy and no buffering time as well.

Your n73 is a basic 3g phone, supports upto 384kbps only..... i think your android phone supports upto 7.2mbps speed.
Yes ,some are getting 3g speeds on 2g packs and also few activated real 3g packs and getting 2g speeds instead of 3g speeds

@ dheeraj dude if handset is 3g enabled it definately supports 3,1 mbps speeds. condition is that u have 2 selects the mode b/w 3g and 2g ...if it supports 384 kbps that means the phone is on 2g mode....

well, i have used n73 phone in 3G mode (friends), i did not get speeds more than 384kbps
