Technology MarketRe: Data Speeds: GPRS, EDGE, UMTS, HSPA, HSPA+, 4G & 4G+ by xtremeidea(m): 10:58pm On Sep 07, 2020
prof2007:
Do you sometimes wonder what data speeds you can get on your smartphone when you see symbols like E, 3G, H, H+, 4G and 4G+ on the phone? In this post, we will look at data rates that can be achieved through key 2G, 3G and 4G technologies.

1. GPRS
Introduced in GSM networks to add mobile data capability so people could use mobile phones also for the internet. GPRS stands for General Packet Radio Service and was an enhancement to existing GSM networks in order to provide mobile internet services. GPRS is sometimes also referred to as 2.5G and can offer peak downlink speeds up to 171.2 kbps. For clarity, the downlink data rates help with the downloads and the uplink data rates help with the uploads.

2. EDGE
Was an enhancement to GPRS networks to improve data speeds. EDGE stands for Enhanced Data for Global Evolution and it increased peak downlink speeds to 384 kbps. EDGE is sometimes referred to as 2.75G and is shown on your mobile phone as symbol ‘E’.

3. UMTS (3G)
After the 2G technologies GSM, GPRS and EDGE, the 3rd generation of mobile networks were launched with Universal Mobile Telecommunications System (UMTS). UMTS was the 3G migration route for those 2G networks that used the GSM standard. The other 3G technology was CDMA2000 which was for 2G networks that used IS-95. UMTS is shown on your mobile phone as the ‘3G’ symbol and offers peak downlink speeds of up to 2 Mbps.

4. HSPA
The need for speed was always there which is why enhancements in mobile communications continued. One of these enhancements in the 3G era was High-Speed Downlink Packet Access (HSDPA) which was followed by High-Speed Uplink Packet Access (HSUPA). These enhancements are collectively termed as High-Speed Packet Access or HSPA. HSPA is shown on your mobile as the ‘H’ symbol and can offer peak downlink and uplink speeds of up to 14.4 Mbps and 5.76 Mbps respectively.

5. HSPA+
Is an upgraded version of HSPA and stands for Evolved High-Speed Packet Access. It makes enhancements t spectral efficiency, peak data rates and latency. Resulting data speeds can reach up to 42 Mbps in the downlink for downloads and 11.5 Mbps in the uplink for uploads.

6. LTE (4G)
4G uses the LTE technology for meeting its requirements and is shown on your mobile phone as the ‘4G’ symbol. LTE stands for Long Term Evolution and provides the 4G migration path to mobile operators using key 3G technologies including Universal Mobile Telecommunication System (UMTS) and CDMA2000. LTE can enable peak speeds of up to 300 Mbps in the downlink for downloads, and up to 75 Mbps in the uplink for uploads.

7. LTE-Advanced (4G+)
While LTE is the key technology for 4G, there have been some later versions of LTE that can offer even higher download speeds. With LTE-Advanced you can get data rates of up to 1Gbps in the downlink which can go as high as 3Gbps with LTE Advanced Pro. LTE Advanced is shown on the mobile as the ‘4G+’ symbol. In case you are wondering, 5G can take these speeds to even higher levels which you can check out in our 5G post.

You may also be wondering where technologies like EVDO fit in? The concept of EVDO is similar to HSPA, and it is a 3G technology enhancement used in the CDMA2000 networks.

So, in summary:
MAX. DOWNLOAD SPEEDS
GPRS: Up to 171.2 kbps.
EDGE: 384 kbps.
3G UMTS: 2 Mbps.
HSPA: 14.4 Mbps.
HSPA+: 42 Mbps.
LTE: 300 Mbps.

MAX. UPLOAD SPEEDS
3G UMTS: 128 kbps.
HSPA: 5.76 Mbps.
HSPA+: 11.5 Mbps.
LTE: 75 Mbps.

Now you may be thinking that speeds like 300 Mbps or even 100 Mbps are hard to get when you are out and about. You are right, these are the peak data rates or maximum achievable speeds. As you would expect, a mobile base station does serve many people simultaneously, so the available data capacity is shared among multiple users. In addition, factors like the distance between the user and the base station, and obstacles like buildings and trees etc can all impact achievable data rates.

Meaning that all the Networks in Nigeria are still operating 3G as no one can boost of 300mbps LTE soeed! grin grin grin grin grin

Yet , they sell us poor data speed in the name of 4G LTE!

GamingRe: Xbox One Or PS4 Which To Buy by xtremeidea(m): 5:39pm On Sep 09, 2019
if you can get a stable internet connection, buy and Xbox and you wont regret u did! you can even play your games on PC Plus other perks

The truth is that xbox is not for everyone, but only for those who can afford it. It's not expensive but because we dont have good stable internet in Nigeria, it can frustrate you.

i just bought them because swift costs and my kids streaming are bcoming unsutainable

this is my experinece

1) max speed you will get is 1500kb/s 1.5mb/s
real world, no speed test BS

2) their connection is constant freezing. i use j downloader, and i have 1fcher, rapidgator nd mega accounts. even so, very three minutes or so downloads have to be restarted. a simple 600mb movie has to be babysat and monitored, right now, i have a movie that has been downloading for over en hour, stopping every five minutes

3) for the first time, i am using a provider that will not allow me to administer my device and network. when they were setting up, they asked me for the name and password i wanted to use. i was like, no problem - i will do that myself - only to be told that i cannot do it myself, it can only be done from their end. on top of that, they added two networks i am not interested including a hotspot. this is a security risk as you have no idea who your password may be shared with , gaining access to your network and devices

4) they are not using a traditional modem but some sort of wifi device. this device is mounted on a very very high pole - which means you now have a very real risk of lightning strikes, surges and damaged equipment.

5) i use a thinkpad, and it comes with wifi security. i am being warned that their network is not secure

for me, it is a wasted 45k.

look at the struggle to download less than 1 gb
Thank you so much. i may have to stick to this annoying swift and ntel till further notice.

Thanks again!!
