IPhone 4 Wireless N Problem - Not Faster than Old 3GS

What speed are you getting on the new iPhone 4 on your wireless N network? I'm only getting the same speed as I got on my old 3GS phone on a a/b wireless network. Shouldn't it be faster?

Hi,
I have an Airport Extreme, when I select Radio Mode 802.11n (802.11b/g compatible) my rate as shown on the Airport Extreme Wireless Clients is 39, while my iPhone 3gs is 54 and my MacBook is 130.
When I select Radio Mode 802.11n only (2.4 GHz) the iPhone 4 is 39 and MacBook is 130.
When I select Radio Mode (using the option key) 802.11g only the iPhone 4 is 54, iPhone 3gs is 54 and the MacBook is 54.........
You can't really compare different hardware and their connections to a wireless AP and say they should be the same. Different radio hardware will perform differently even when connected to the same physical access point.
Also, the numbers you posted are the speed of the link from your devices to the AP itself and have little to nothing to do with the speeds you'll get when you go out to the Internet where all connection go through the same pipe.
So at 802.11n even though you might connect at 130Mbps to the AP, if you are only getting 12Mbps to the Internet through your router/modem then that's all you'll get on the device connected at 130Mbps.

  • Since I download the app «Rio de Janeiro Map» on my iPhone by wireless, I m not able to download it on iTunes.

    Since I download the app «Rio de Janeiro Map» on my iPhone by wireless, I m not able to download it on iTunes. It give me a very slow connection (less then 5bits /sec) with an average of 72 hours to download. How can I fix this. iTunes 10.5, iP 4.3.5. When I ty to cancel it, I m not able to do it. Any help please, cause it bloke my synce and froze iTune.

    iPhone was hacked/jailbroken and through updating iPhone, it is locked back to the original carrier. Give your iPhone back, it is useless for you.

  • TS1398 my new ipad works perfectly. the iphone 5, however, cannot connect to the same wifi, can barely get a 3G signal, and the power level is at 53% after being barely used for 1\2 a day. Is this a hardware problem?? My old 3Gs was fine until it died.

    Greetings,
    I've never seen this issue, and I handle many iPads, of all versions. WiFi issues are generally local to the WiFi router - they are not all of the same quality, range, immunity to interference, etc. You have distance, building construction, and the biggie - interference.
    At home, I use Apple routers, and have no issues with any of my WiFi enabled devices, computers, mobile devices, etc - even the lowly PeeCees. I have locations where I have Juniper Networks, as well as Aruba, and a few Netgears - all of them work as they should.
    The cheaper routers, Linksys, D-Link, Seimens home units, and many other no name devices have caused issues of various kinds, and even connectivity.
    I have no idea what Starbucks uses, but I always have a good connection, and I go there nearly every morning and get some work done, as well as play.
    You could try changing channels, 2.4 to 5 Gigs, changing locations of the router. I have had to do all of these at one time or another over the many years that I have been a Network Engineer.
    Good Luck - Cheers,
    M.

  • I tried to update my photo albums in my Iphone 4S. I could not, and the old photos were removed. I tried again to copy the albums in the Iphone from a PC Windows XP folder and it does not work.

    You can't activate any GSM iPhone without a valid sim card installed in the phone.
    So, yes, you need to get a sim card.

  • Dedicated scratch not faster than scratch on boot volume

    My Mac Pro boot OS is on a 150 Gb striped raid made from outer partitions on two 1Tb drives in bays 1 and 2. There is 95 Gb free on the boot. 8 Gb RAM.
    My normal scratch is on a dedicated 150 Gb striped raid made from the outer partitions of the 1Tb drives in bays 3 and 4.
    I ran the Retouche artists Photoshop speed test with the scratch on the dedicated separate scratch, and on the boot volume.
    The results were:
    Average time of several runs with dedicated scratch was 45.5 seconds.
    Average time with scratch on boot was 43.9 seconds.
    Since I was expecting the dedicated scratch to be faster I was a bit surprised so I repeated the exercise on my MacBook Pro (1.83 MHz, 2 Gb RAM). Normal scratch is the boot volume which a 5400 rpm 500 Gb Samsung with 150 Gb free, no partitions. For this exercise, I connected an eSATA via an express card to provide a dedicated scratch alternative.
    Average time with dedicated separate scratch was 152 seconds.
    Average time with scratch on boot was also 152 seconds.
    All Retouche Tests were done with 40 history states and 4 cache levels, which results in about 7Gb of scratch being used. On both machines Quickbench shows the scratch as just a few percent faster than the boot.
    I repeated the Mac Pro tests with the test file located on different drives, including the boot and the scratch, but there were no significant differences.
    What has happened to the standard advice about dedicated scratch for Photoshop?
    Any thoughts ? (other than that I have too much time on my hands!)
    Mike

    Important to note the buffer on those drives are the all 32MB or are some 16MB.
    A drive with a 32 MB buffer is going to record data faster.
    However if you are on a MacPro (Intel) which it sounds like you are,
    I can confirm that using your start up disk as opposed to a dedicated
    separate scratch will not be of any speed advantage with photoshop.
    At least it does not seem that way from my own test.
    I also found partitioning the drive does not seem to be necessary on the intel box?
    I have a test that is fairly consistent regardless as long as you have sufficient RAM 8 GB or more a Raid O scratch and an the same amount of memory allowed.
    I still find with CS 4 that using bigger tiles is helpful as wel as the Forced VM Buffer plug in.
    They still seem to speed things up a bit.
    My test work on my dual xeon core duo that way in 16-18 seconds ona 8 core MacPro with 2GB of RAM and with out the Raid 0 and using the startup as the scratch with no Raid configured and without the plug ins it takes about 3 minutes.
    The Ram and the raid are the important things the other two help.

  • IPhone 3G: Wireless adapter problem

    Hi there,
    since two days I have problems connecting my iPhone to my wireless network. We have two iPhones and severals other devices in our home network and every device is still working, except this one iPhone.
    Is there any chance that the wireless adapter in the iPhone breaks without anything happening, like I didn't drop the phone or something like that. It's just the wireless not working anymore, the network is detected but once I enter the password, it says it cannot connect. Even turning the encryption off doesn't help. The other iPhone still works perfectly.
    Has anyone an idea how I can verify that the hardware itself is still working properly?
    Thanks and regards,
    Seb

  • Local Interfaces in WebLogic 7.0 Not Faster Than Remote Interfaces?

    I was curious how much faster calling business methods in
    a stateless session EJB in WebLogic 7.0 would be through
    a local interface than calling the same business methods
    through a remote interface. I timed both ways of calling
    the same methods and much to my surprise the times were
    nearly identical. I double-checked that in one case I really
    used the local interface (using ejb-local-ref, local-jndi-name,
    local interfaces in source code). Does anybody (perhaps from
    BEA) have an explanation for this? By the way, I ran the
    same experiment with other J2EE application servers such
    as IBM's WebSphere 5 (Beta) and there was a tremendous
    performance difference between local and remote interface
    usage.
    Thanks,
    Reinhard

    I appreciate your response and, at the same time, I am somewhat
    surprised about it. Here are the reasons for my surprise:
    1. Your response indicates that WebLogic uses RMI for
    EJB local method calls, i.e., even if the client is on the same VM.
    I would have assumed that WebLogic would bypass RMI in such
    a situation.That is not what I said. Local interfaces wont use rmi.
    But remote interfaces do better if the call is from the same VM. This is
    weblogic rmi optimization. Please see Rob's posting also.
    2. Other J2EE application servers fare a lot better. In one
    experiment, I timed WebLogic against WebSphere 5.0 Technology
    for Developers (i.e., WebSphere 5.0 Beta, which is expressly
    NOT for performance testing) and against the Sun Reference
    Implementation. Here are the numbers for calling business
    methods in a stateless session EJB through its local interface:
    WebLogic: 5.15 ms on the average
    WebSphere: 0.41 ms on the average
    Sun Reference Implementation: 0.11 ms on the average
    This indicates to me that both WebSphere and the Sun Reference
    Implementation are better optimized than WebLogic by excluding
    RMI when making local EJB calls.

    Can you post some numbers so that we can visualize the difference.
    Please add the numbers with other J2EE appserver also.
    Otherwise top of my head, the reason is:
    Weblogic rmi is well optimized for the calls with in the same JVM andsame
    J2EE application.
    This could be the reason you are not seeing much difference.

  • New iPhone 5 wireless security problem

    I have just discovered hat I cannot use several PC and Macbook devices on my wireless network if I am using WPA/AES security.  I have turned security off completely and all works ok and tomorrow when I have hours to spare I will try WEP.  Can this really be true?  Can Apple really get things so wrong? Does anyone know of a way to fix this this and use WPA?

    Sorry - I should have said this only happens when I connect my new iPhone 5!

  • Loop rate on my RT system not faster than 1kHz

    Hi,
    I have a PXI5404 frequency generator card without memory. So I tried to
    program the memory list on my own with  while-loop. The value for
    the frequency card is updated with an extern digital signal. But it
    sems that my loop doesn't run faster thn 1ms. Is there any solution?
     I have a PXI system with an PXI 8176 Controller, an 6259 M-series card, a PXI 6723 analog out card and the frequency card.
    Thanks for your help

    Thanks for the answer.
    In deed, I was able to change my frequency faster, down to 200 microseconds. First I gave out a frequency of 20kHz, switched to 3 MHz for 200 µs and back to 20 kHz. So, the card can read the frequency faster, but after I switched back to 20 kHz, the frequency isn't updated any more. The card is missing one trigger. Could it be faster to communicate directly with the analog devices chip un the card via some hardware addresses?
    Thanks

  • Problems running basic text in aftereffects faster than 19fps... what exactly do I need?

    OK, so I finaly upgraded my computer into the mild 21st century, and to my disapointment, I cannot seem to run anything as smoothly as I had thought.
    These are the specs for my computer...
    ASUS m5a99x EVO motherboard
    8 gigs ddr3 1600 ram
    NVIDIA 9800gt 1 gig ddr3 gpu
    AMD Phenom II x4 B50 Processor at 3.2ghz (IE its an AMD athlon II 450 X3 3.2ghz with its fourth core unlocked (of which i have had no problems with thus far, as it seems to be very stable)
    150 gig 7200 sata 2 harddrive (OLD)
    200 gig 5400 sata 2 hard drive (OLD AS SH*T)
    300ghz portable usb2 hd (7200) (2 years old)
    Basicly, I cant seem to run even basic text in after effects faster than 19 FPS.
    I've tried to change the resolution to half, and even a fourth, and that didnt work at all, infact it made it run about 1 frame worse.
    I tried changing the Open gl texture memory, raising and lowering, but to no avail, Ive changed the ram usage in after effects to use 2 gigs per core, then one gig, then turned off multiframe rendering alltogether, and nothing.
    I feel like ive tried everything in my power.
    Now the Imacs at my school, they run the program smooth as hell... and they arent that much better, spec wise than my computer.
    Even my friends Imac can run it smooth, and he only has an I5 cpu at 2.4ghz, which is fine and my understanding of cpus is that those are better proccessors, but its not that much better, and even still, why would that be neccesary just to run text scrolling accross the screen?
    Even more so, why would changing the resolution not have any effect?
    What exactly do I need to run after effects smoothly for a basic text scroll at say, 720P?
    I need to know what to upgrade, soon I plan to get cs6 and I would like to have a computer that can edit basic HD properly.
    What I realy dont get is that I know people with laptops that are running AE smoothly and these are much worse than the specs on my machine, some even with only 4 gigs of ram...
    Is there something wrong, do I have some sort of frame limiter thats capping at 19 fps? is there some sort of memory leak?
    Any help would be much apreciated.
    Now the only thing I can think of thats holding me back is the crappy hard drives, every thing else seems like it should at least run text on after effects at 30 fps.

    thanks, that at least is enough to get me started, lol I have a deadline tomorrow and have been burning a lot of time on just trying to get this to run smooth.
    BTW, I am running the project off of the portable, I switched from the old, but faster harddrive that was sata2 to the portable given I thought that might increase the speed, which it didnt.
    what I might do is crack the case and just plug it straight into the computer, though I am hesitant to do so as if I were going to do that, I might as well just purchase a usb 3.0 one and do that so i can get sata 3 out of it, since those cases dont exactly just snap back together.
    When I say basic text, I mean layered text, just word after word in order. I honestly dont have any plugins that I know of, (if I had the money for them I would have spent it on a better computer probably) so what I have is what came with the master collection.
    And when I say 19 FPS I mean spacebar...
    NOW I KNOW, that Im not garunteed 30 fps when running the preview, but when I use the mac, it previews fine... and i just looked up my CPU in comparison to the I5 in the IMAC that I was refering to, and mine is actualy faster according to some benchmarks, granted its not faster than the vast majority of I5s and I7s, but the particular ones in the computers I was refering to, mine is actualy faster over all, so I figure its not a CPU thing (unless its a -our software only works right on INTEL- thing).
    Now as far as the 3d camera, yes I am using it, but even when I run the text without a camera function (ie the thing that you have in your comp) or any sort of 3d layering it runs just as slow.
    The Audio might be a problem, I used to have a soundcard, but that died about a year ago so I have been using onboard sound (realtek HD something) which truly sucks in comparison to a proper sound card, but I cant imagine the IMACs have anything better, I mean the sound from the Imac kinda sucks alltogether, dosent even have any sort of virtual surround... But a driver issue it could be, realtek is kind of ghetto in that regard.
    I will try some of the tips above (the open gl and the preview output and such), and thank you very much.
    *EDIT*
    OK, so with the preview output, I have computer monitor only? is that what you ment?
    *EDIT*
    OK, so I did the OpenGL thing, removed it, and for a brief few secconds, it started to run at a mix of 25 to 30 fps, then, when I went to play it again, it was back at 19.

  • 3G much faster than WiFi now?

    Ever since I purchased the 3G iPhone my 3G performance is MUCH faster than my WiFi connection. My old iPhone was very fast on my WiFi connection but the new 3G iPhone is MUCH slower using the WiFi connection. It's so much slower that I have permanently turned WiFi OFF. My WiFi network is exactly the same. The only thing that has changed is the phone. I thought it would get better with the latest update but it hasn't. Anyone else experiencing this??

    Here are the results from my speed tests.
    3G TEST:
    262 kbps (Latency probe response is 300ms)
    317 kbps (Latency probe response is 300ms)
    572 kbps (Latency probe response is 300ms)
    293 kbps (Latency probe response is 300ms)
    589 kbps (Latency probe response is 300ms)
    AVERAGE SPEED IS 406kbps
    WiFi TEST:
    1763kbps (initial latency probe is 35976ms, rest are roughly 140ms)
    1543kbps (initial latency probe is 36095ms, rest are roughly 140ms)
    2239kbps (initial latency probe is 441ms, rest are roughly 140ms)
    CRASH (Had to restart Safari)
    1780kbps (initial latency probe is 22810ms, rest are roughly 140ms)
    1656kbps (initial latency probe is 29863ms, 28364ms, rest are roughly 140ms)
    2084kbps (initial latency probe is 411ms, rest are roughly 140ms)
    AVERAGE SPEED IS 1844kbps
    The problem with my WiFi is the initial connection takes forever. Once it gets going it is much faster. Looks like I have massive turbo lag. Since the initial WiFi ping takes longer than the entire 10 pings of the 3G test the WiFi connection “appears” much slower. Not good.
    Anyone have any idea how I can fix this? Should I try and return the phone?

    I have problem with my iphone 4s my battery is not keeping charge. how can I get help with this one? it is less than a year that I purchased this cell.

    I would like to know the answer to that one.  I realized this was happening just after upgradeing my iOS to 6.  Then when I looked up my purchase date, I was about 5 days past my one year warranty.  So I'm dead in the water.  Apple will replace the battery, but it will be about $80+.  I took it to the Apple store, and they checked a bunch of stuff, but said that it seemed ok.  I'm debating getting a battery for a more reasonable price off of ebay.  But if it's the iOS thats draining the battery, then I'm not going to be able to help it.  I wish I knew a better way to tell if its the battery, the phone, or the iOS.
