Very very very slow hspa+ data speeds on Iphone 4S
Just curious how many other people are having dead slow data speeds on the iphone 4S on the Hspa+ network AND Wifi?
I've switched phones once already and changed sims last night. Nothing seems to improve.
The Iphone4 was awesome at everything in the Chicago & New York areas.
Now at least in Chicago, I can't get down speeds more than 0.6 mb down and up speeds of no more than 0.1 mb.
I usually have zero connection to the data network in most places as well except underground in the subway on one area of north downtown. 😮
I don't know what to do as I have sold my Iphone4 already, I can't go back. No one seems to be complaining about this issue to ATT or stores though. Am I the only one ???
So in addition, it's very slow on my wifi network as well while I have a few laptops and an ipad doing fine. My significant other's older apple device and computer are fine speed wise as well.
Any suggestions? or are u guys just fine?
Thanks,
Ken

I still have very slow Wi-Fi data speeds though in my home and other people's homes as well as educational institutions. I'm finding that with the very low data speeds around 1 to 2 MB down in most areas I visit, it's still faster right now to leave my phone on cellular data rather than join a Wi-Fi network, that just can't be right.
This leads me to believe that it is iOS five which has given all my Apple devices now a slow Wi-Fi connection. This is really irritating though because I usually receive much faster data speeds everywhere I go when I joined Wi-Fi networks. Now I'm stuck in low gear. are you guys finding this too? Will we will have to wait for Apple to release an update and will it fix this problem?
I have no idea. But, I am annoyed.
Just as an example, I was finally able to re-cache my slacker radio stations. I couldn't do it before because my Wi-Fi connection was so slow on my iPhone. I finally did it today over HSPA plus but at half the speed of my usual Wi-Fi connection. I would have rather use my Wi-Fi and not my cellular data.

iOS 5 must be to blame if it is happening on all of your Apple devices. I'm glad I didn't update my iPhone quite yet, if I even do at all...

Cross your fingers... Hopefully the new iOS update will correct possible errors found in the original iOS 5.
