Default Super slow 3g stock.
I noticed recently my net was extremely slow. I ran a few tests and never get above 600kbps. When I was on cm7 i got up to 3mbps. Anything I can do?

Where are you from?

I had to use DEFY BASEBAND SWITCHER to get my 3G working.

Dont use it if you have 3G, but this must cause of your carrier. (I think)

i agree with jouse its probably your carrier, i did get an increase in speed but it was never that low, it was like between .8 and 1.5 mbps stock to atleast 2.5 mbps cm7 though I don't think its an issue of not having 3G cuz EDGE doesn't go that fast

I using 2 sim cards from Claro Dominicana, I pay around US$ 0.64 for 24 hours of internet. Very CHEAP!!

With one of the sim cards I use, I just get 256kbps, I dont know why its limited like that... the other one gets all 3G speed (up to 6 mbps at nights) , both of them are 3G and I dont why that happens.

Check if your carrier limits the usage of the 3G speed.
