Hi,

When connected to the internet through a bluetooth phone I can't seen to find reporting more than 20-25 kbyte/second even with 3G or 3.5G phones + unlimited data plans.

With my Nokia 6086 which is EDGE only I get 20-25 kbyte/second spikes and overall average of 10-15 kbyte/second

If you're in Europe you can test download speed in a X Terminal as follows:

Code:
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'd love to hear than you can get better download speed than me on your N810!

Real speed of internet access via 3g and bluetooth:

On my Nokia 770 (2008HE) bluetooth file transfer maxes out at 72kB/s by receiving and 47kB/s by sending.

Connected via bluetooth to nokia 6120c I got about 100 kB/s. Normally it's about 50-60kB/s. And this was tested in Finland.

I have done a few speed test and just google "gadget show speed test" and use that reliable test, you dont have to fill in any boxes, just click test.

mine seems to have a constant good upload speed at about 300kbps and download is a bit erratic, but is in between 200 and 500 kbps and the odd one below 100kbps

The limit will most likely be the speed of the bluetooth connection. Bluetooth is very slow.

It's not so much Bluetooth, as the profile. DUN being about ~50KB/sec and PAN being around ~100KB/sec (both well within Bluetooth 2.0 + EDR limits).
