Internet Speed in wifi and 4g

[bibihub]

Hi all,

I am very happy with my mi4c overall. I have one concern since I hav it though: the internet speed.
For example, when I download something from the playstore, I have download speeds smaller than 1 Mo/s. Same thing happens in 4G. And while browsing the internet, I feel that the speed isn't that great either. Also downloading files from the internet takes a lot of times with an equivalent speed (so not only playstore).
It is weird because with the same wifi connection on my tab, I have speeds around 5 Mo/s while downloading in the playstore or better.
Even weirder, when I run a speed test with the phone, I do have a fast internet connection (more than 50Mbps).
Am I the only one ? Would you have a solution ? Do you think it is ROM related and it will improve later ?

Mi4C 3/32 on latest MIUI 7 by Xiaomi.eu 5.10.16

The Playstore download is a bit sluggish but it's still okay probably around 60%~ of my usual speed
Other than that I have no internet problems whatsoever

I think you should better use an app like Speedtest.net to benchmark your Wifi or 4G speed.

Exactly what I did. That is why it ia strange to me.
Looking at other forums, it looks like the problem is only in playstore even though I felt large files, downloaded with chrome for example, also suffered this problem. But I might be wrong for the last one (it could be bad servers for example)

me too , I tried everything without results

 

[kikian94]

me too, with the china version 7.0.7 with speedtest in 5GHz 256Mbps max with 300Mb and a asus ac87u router, and now with the 5.10.22 only 110Mbps, is a modem issue in this version?

 

[fattymcdirty]

any clue?!?! this is not very good...

Hi! me and a friend of mine have the same problem! we had done a post on miui forum (http://en.miui.com/thread-175385-1-1.html) in order to advise the team of this bug and we hope that will be fixed.
Another member of miui forum installs cm 12.1 and discovers that ther is no bug of speed connection with that!

 

[Argasil]

Does anyone install the miui7 stable and verify if download's bug is gone?

 

[fattymcdirty]

Global stable is not avail for mi4c........

 

[fattymcdirty]

so... no solution to this one? i heard that the unofficial build of cyanogenmod doesn't have this problem - so it's definitely a software/driver issue!

that should be solvable?! i already tried different suggestions without having any positive effect (disabling ipv6 on my router, disabling ipv6 on the mi4c...) still slow. but it's slow in downloading everywhere... whereas my sony z3 tablet or my ipad get maxxed out dl-rates ... but the mi4c is extremely slow in downloading.

using xiaomi.eu 5.10.22

I heard that all modders deleted stock "xunlei" app - thats a point.
I think we just need to wait official multilang stable firmware.

 

[ermacwins]

I've flashed miui, cm and mokee roms and noticed that play store downloads is only slow in miui rom

 

[ermacwins]

Best if you bring the attention to this forum http://xiaomi.eu/community/threads/5-10-29-30.28909/page-7

I already have so the more the better

 

[fancccc]

on CM12.1 it's like 9-10 mb/s. so rom related problem

 

[fattymcdirty]

Problem is, that XIAOMI.EU deleted/disabled the Xunlei Download Engine..

False, other xiaomi devices (eg. mi note pro and mi note 3g) with the same xiaomi.eu (latest developer) version don't experience this problem. They also don't have xunlei engine.

I had same problem on my Mi4C, my download speed was 400 ko/s max.

I searched on all forums why it was so slow, it was really boring, and i found the solution.

I activated Xunlei, and then i was able to download at max speed, around 4 Mo/s (both download manager and Playstore).

I'm on MIUI France ROM, and they didnt delete Xunlei.

It seems if you dont activate Xunlei, there is a software limit in download speed.

It's not a driver issue because if you use another download manager, that you can find on Playstore or XDA, you can download at full speed.
