said by ) thanks VERYYY much for the benefit of the Doubt DumbWaldo... appreciate... i will say though the that 3.7 MBPS speed is a speed that I personally verified and pushed...[/QUOTE:

did you notice i did not say anything to turbomkt? thats because the speed he is showing is actually possible. its faster than the average speeds i quoted and IMHO not likely to be that fast as the service grows in subscribers but that is a realistic and achievable speed. what you are claiming is impossible and it is irresponsible to lead others to believe what you are saying.

either your equipment is flawed, your method of testing is flawed or you are just plain misrepresenting something because that speed is simply not possible.

the ev-do specification has a maximum BUST speed of 2.4 Mb/s.

in addition to the fact that you think you have broken a technical limitation of the technology your supposed results ignore the fact that at this time verizon only has their EV-DO towers connected to a T-1 connection effectivley halving the possible speeds.

under the most ideal situations available on the verizon network the best speed you could possibly achieve today would be 1.5 Mbs, the speed of the connection going to the tower.

sorry but that speed is impossible and i think it is very irresponsible to promote such bad information in your desire to make a buck. or maybe you have some better explination for disagreeing with the entire industry that agrees the top BURST speed achievable on ev-do is 2.4 Mb/s. or maybe you have a better explination of how you shattered the physical limitation at 1.54Mb/s on the T-1 line that is connected to the EV-DO tower.

or maybe you just lied to make a sale.

... do not expect to ever see anything any better than 500 Kb/s on EV-DO. ...
