I never really use my wifi on my phone even though I have it at my house. But last night I connected to wifi to compare download speeds with my sons droid x. Well come to find out that this thing is downloading videos at 1.5gbps !!!! I could not believe it, is this a normal speed for the Fascinate? I also have rubiks rom with the data throttle remover. Could I get some feedback, just want to know what most people are running on wifi. Thanks.:D

1.5gbps? Are you sure that its not mbps?

At that speed, are you downloading videos within a second?

If you are download at 1.5gbps, that's unworldly fast. You mean mbps? Also, Wifi speed also depends on how fast your home internet service is in the first place.

My bad guys it is"mdps" After I posted I realized that I mentioned to put mdps.But I still think that's pretty dorm fast, it beats every laptop on the house and this is a phone.

You still probably want to say mbps. Today's phones can match any laptop on the a,b,g,n WiFi band. It all depends on you isp speed and what type of wifi you're using.

It has to be Mbps; the max speed for wireless N is around 300 Mbps.
Just to let you know wireless N has virtually nothing to do with download rate. That has to do with your ISP wether it be Verizon's Broadband or any ISP... Wireless N can reach speeds of 600Mbps with a dual bonded router and dual bonded adapter... This will only matter if you transfer files on your LAN... Not over WAN... normal maximum bandwidth around the country is anywhere between 1.5-25 Mbps... not to say there isnt faster.
