    Default 3G internet goes much slower

    A week ago I upgraded from 3.1.3 to 4.0.1 with TU, and I noticed a decrease in the speed of my 3G internet. Before this upgrade, when downloading for example my iphone could download almost all the time at 130kb/s and now its maximum is 15kb/s and so I tried to fix this by downgrading to 4.0 to see if this worked, but it didnt.
    after this fail, I tried downgrading to 3.1.3 again to see if this would finally fix this slow internet speed but its the same story.

    Do you think that maybe when restoing, the backup I have has something wrong or somethinG?

    thanks in advance!

    Are you restoring from backup or setting up as new device?

    it's always recommended to setup as new and not backup if the backup is from a jailbroken phone

    I've had the same problem, despite restoring fresh. I'm fairly sure there's something buggy in thew 4.0.1 networking drivers.

    well really, I restored a few times using TU my backup of my jailbroken phone trying to fix the slow internet conexion, but now that I know that I have to set it up as a new device, I have done it twice as a new device but the internet speed keeps on going slow.. I dont know what more to do.. I have done it to 4.0.1, Im going to try 3.1.3
    before it went always at 130kb/s and now its maximum is 15kb/s.. it is annoying..
    any suggestions on how to make it go fast again?

    If you set it up as a new device there's nothing you can do. That pretty much cleans up everything so, find a better place to use 3G, lol.

    I wasn't having speed problems with my 3G, but my i4. I had a tech manager remove then put back my data service and that worked. You could try that.
