Just wondering what speeds you guys have experienced with wifi on P1i. I have been finding it very slow and checked it with a speed test online on several different times. I wasn't expecting the 5-6 mb/s speed i get on my pc but my last wifi phone (wm5) was averaging 1.5 mb/s. My P1i is averaging about 150Kb/s which is no better than 3g. This is sitting right in front of a router on a 8mb/s line. I have double checked P1i is actually using wifi & not GPRS connection. Just thought it strange. Is this what I should expect from the phone? Any thoughts appreciated.

P1i only supports wifi b which means the max it can recieve is 11mbps; not the 54 mbps that you would get with G. But indeed, such a low speed is odd.

Yeah whats up with that whole b but not g thing. That sucks, they didnt even upgrade that on the W960.

But W960 doesn't have this bug. I'm getting full speeds on my W960 when using WLAN.

I can only repeat the question of why you want a 56mbps wifi capability in your phone when the average broadband probably only has an 8mbps connection with your service provider?
but the issue of b and not g in P1 is not the question here and I am certainly acheiving higher speeds than mentioned here

Agreed. There's absolutely no need for downloading speeds above 11 Mbit/s on a mobile phone.

Doesn't really matter whether it's wifi b or g as far as internet is concerned does it? Unless someone has a connection running at over 11mbps? I'd quite like to get a 1/10th of that on my p1i!

Check power saving but also a bluetooth device working in the vincinity (10m) as BT is well known for degrading WiFi performance.
