I do only pay for Category 8 and if I have a good signal I get between 700 and 800kbyte/s.
You know what I just realized? My speeds at times test exactly at those speeds. Also, I just checked it again and i got 66Kbps... which is still TERRIBLE. Compared to Verizon. How the hell does Tmobile even sell customers this bullcrap? This is insanity. I never realized how terrible my speeds were, I'm so chewing out the people at the Tmobile store today.

If you look at the coverage map for my area its solid HSPA+ and not to mention I always have full bars and am constantly switching between 3.5G and 3G... So annoyed.
