Default Web N Walk Pro - How Fast at 3G only?
I have just performed a speedtest using Thinkbroadband.com (formerly Adslguide.org.uk). The results are:-
Downlink = 349.03Kbps
Uplink = 112.21Kbps

I'm a bit surprised at the Uplink speed as I was expecting nothing more than 64Kbps for a bog-standard 3G connection.

Windows reports the connection at 460.8Kbps which is probably what the Nokia 6280 modem is reporting back to it.

Performance (here and now) is not too dissimilar from my terrestrial broadband link (10Mbps Telewest) in terms of how fast web pages display. It is noticeably slower, but only by degrees.

The Nokia 6280 does not support HSDPA - come upgrade time I'll be wanting something with the ability to make practical use of T-Mobile's UK-wide HSDPA network. Good results are being reported by some.
