to be honest i believe these poor numbers, i think their is a bug in the storms radio code or soemthing, i have felt since day one that my storm was much slower in downloading than my moto q and my moto q was not rev a. or maybe its the damn RIM proxy servers you must use.
does anyone know if this bypasses rim bis-b proxy some how?
Hi to all, we try this app at BBStormworld, the italian community of BB Storm, here in italy there is a problem because Vodafone and Tim did not permit direct access to internet without a plan for the web and all the users have BIS active for going out.
The problem is that this app does not go with BIS connection but want an apn in the BB option, for us at payment.
We write Cisco to inform them about this and we are waiting for the reply
I just don't know about this app. I think it's mislabeled and measuring in kilobytes per second and not kilobits per second.
If everyone multiplied their results by 8 they would be where they should (kbps/kBps conversion ratio). I just sent an email to Cicso asking them to confirm the unit of measurement.
I haven't been able to get it to run yet (it just gets stuck at "finding location"), but as far as speed goes, I'm able to use the YouTube app w/o a problem, and I can stream music direct from Slacker.com w/o issue as well (although caching is the way to go to keep down bandwidth usage). If I were only getting 89, I wouldn't think these apps would work too well. At the very least they would be very stuttery. Sounds like mikestorm may have the right idea. Can't wait to see what Cisco says.
Not sure if it is anymore or less reliable but here is 2 back to back tests i ran from dsl reports mobile test
How did you get this to run Danstar? I went to:
dslreports.com/mspeed
I used the BB browser, and changed the ID from BB to Firefox and then IE but it didn't work. I also used Opera, but it gives me an error saying "unstable/too fast a result please choose a larger file" Even when I choose the largest option of 1 meg I get the same message.
I don't seem to be able to break 100. I emailed 3 other people to use this program, 1 BB Storm user, and two Iphone users. Their results:
All at one area at work -
Storm : max of 80 in the basement of a building
Iphone 1 : 69 and 89 today for highs and 119 yesterday
Iphone 2 : 63 and 102 yesterday
------------------------------------
Iphone 2 : (at home ) 529 high
Can someone help me please.... I have this loaded on my device, I am on Verizon Wireless and it is stuck on "Finding location" any ideas?
I know this is worn out and tired response but I would just try a battery pull. It usually fixes these type of things. If you tried that and it still doesn't work, maybe try reinstalling. How is your signal? You aren't buried in a basement somewhere are you?
Once you get it running, prepare to be disappointed.
Why is this so slow? My fastest speed was indoors where I had 2 signal bars but when I'm outside with 5 bars I'm getting speeds around 90 kbs.
Is this slow cuz I'm still on the .75 OS?

Browser id is set to ie. go to text.dslreports.com/mspeed
select 100k test, select choose a larger file
select 1mb
it does not work for me every time, sometimes it says choose a larger file when i am using the 1mb test. I just keep running it until i get a result. Usually no more than a few times.
Has anyone noticed that downloading is very staggered? Even when downloading apps. My phone will download a portion, pause, download another portion, pause, download another portion, etc. This is very evident when running this speed test over and over. I've never actually had it once download the test file straight through without pausing.
