SLOW!!!!

No Cameras Allowed

Ok, I've been using this phone for about 8 months now with no problems at all. In fact, using my iPAQ I clocked a 96kbps at www.2wire.com which is pretty good.

Well, about 2 weeks ago my speed DROPPED!!! I can barely squeeze out a 15 kbps over at 2 wire. I just clocked a 7.6!!

Of course, T-mobile didn't help, it was the whole "you're not using an approved device, so go away and come back when you are using something you bought from us!" story.

Could this thing be broken after only 8 months of use?

HELP!

OK, not sure why, but the speed is a bit confusing. Last night I had NO problems streaming a 96k audio stream from www.DI.fm (gotta love it!).

Then, I went over to www.2wire.com and clocked a 23.3 kbps. (not kBps) Repeated this on my desktop, pocketPC and laptop to within a few kbps. Tried Firefox and IE, Firefox consistantly clocked 2 - 3 kbps slower.

Also, bittorrent speeds were fluctuating between 12 and 18 kBps. This mathces about right, and is freakin' amazing if you consider it (at $20 per month).

So, I don't know why surf speed is down, but stream speed is even faster than it was before.

Strange.

Later,
Jeff
