Best internet download speed through bluetooth phone?
Hi, When connected to the internet through a bluetooth phone I can't seen to find someone reporting more than 20-25 kbyte/second even with 3G or 3.5G phones + unlimited data plans in France at least. With my Nokia 6086 which is EDGE only I get 20-25 kbyte/second spikes and overall average of 10-15 kbyte/second which is as expected. I'm evaluating wether or not to buy a 3.5G phone like the Nokia E51. If you're in France or Europe you can test download speed in a X Terminal as follows: wget http://test1.guerby.org/test -O /dev/null Hit C-c after a few minutes once you've got an idea of download speed (test file is 10 Mbyte of compressed data). If not in Europe replace the URL with one of any compressed file URL near you. I'm interested in data plan/phone combo that get good download speed in France. Thanks!

Re: Best internet download speed through bluetooth phone?
Laurent, I can't help with respect to France but it so happens that yesterday while in a room inside of the Washington DC convention center I ran the DSLreports Internet Speed test and I was clocking ~126kbps on a Verizon Wireless EVDO connection to an N800 running the stock OS2007. The two speed test www sites that I have used successfully in recent times are: http://www.broadbandreports.com/speedtest and http://www.speakeasy.net/speedtest The second one tests in both directions but is not specific to mobile devices.

Has anyone found or got A2DP working with a Bluetooth stereo headset, yet? Yes. It's still got issues with breakups occasionally but kagu supports it if you install mplayer and create a settings file for it (mplayer). You really need to do a search for A2DP on the http://internettablettalk.com forums for the full information on setting it up and what to expect. I ended up getting a Jabra A120S BT A2DP transmitter which is small enough to plug in just about anywhere and isn't too bulky or heavy to hang off the n800. The breakups were just too annoying whereas there are 0 breakups with the transmitter. Thanks for the pointer, Larry. Got that installed and working OK, but with the occasional glitch, as you say. So, OK for occasional use, but until Nokia get on and resolve the a2dp issues once and for all, maybe I need to look into getting one of those dongles, too...

Re: Best internet download speed through bluetooth phone?
guys a few more data points for DUN rates. these are all gsm phones in a umts network in the US (att). htc tilt 580kbps lg cu500 600kbps samsung sync 320kbps moto razr v3xx 550kbps I believe the tests were all using a bt1.2 adapter on one side or the other so the lg for example might be hitting a throughput ceiling for bluetooth. -- Brad ___ maemo-users mailing list maemo-users@maemo.org https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-users
New N810 - worst purchase I've made this year.
Question - what is the official stance on 1) GPS not working since the latest upgrade to OS2008 and 2) LEAP on MSCHAP2 wifi not working (I mean, the device is advertised as being able to use wifi) I just bought it about a week ago, and GPS worked great - until I updated from Nokia. I shouldn't really have to say it, but being told that the device can get on wifi and then finding that it can't use LEAP - which most offices I've ever visited use - is kind of a bait and switch. Plus, my $19 gps device I bought at wal-mart two years ago is able to connect, but the N810 is not. I'm just wondering what Nokia/Maemo has to say about these issues, because I'm looking at returning the device if these features aren't being fixed by Nokia/Maemo soon. ___ maemo-users mailing list maemo-users@maemo.org https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-users

Hi Laurent, I just got a new SE W890 which has Edge and 3.5G (I can't figure out if that's the same thing...). I'm using the PAN to connec to my N810 to the phone's modem. The sevice provider is 3 (http://www.three.com/) and I have a 1GB/month plan at Euro 21. With your test file (from Sweden at night), I got up to 55Kb/s with an average at around 44Kb/s. Good luck with your search! /henrik ___ maemo-users mailing list maemo-users@maemo.org https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-users

LEAP is a proprietary Cisco protocol. The standard is WPA. I hardly think it's Nokia's fault that Cisco don't provide drivers for their non-standard protocol. mathew ___ maemo-users mailing list maemo-users@maemo.org https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-users
