These speeds sound like a joke if you're talking about "4G". Here's the result from my prepaid 3G SIM in *China*, and this was measured in my hotel room with just a bar of reception. http://www.speedtest.net/result/679734720.png
Why haven't I seen any WiMAX results that are as fast as HSDPA yet? At least the LTE networks in scandinavia have speeds that start out at the high-end HSDPA speeds even if they're not much faster.
@unyari It's not 4G. I thought these people at Engadget would know better. WiMax is more of a fixed wireless than mobile broadband although the lastest revision 802.16e does allow for mobility. It's kind of inferior to LTE (which is not a full 4G technology either).
Now that we've thrown 'em off the trail, use the form below to get in touch with the people at Engadget. Please fill in all of the required fields because they're required.

@kalleboo So true. I'm confused by this so called "4G" network.

@kalleboo - Wow, I'm jealous. I'm lucky to get 600KBps down on AT&T here over 3G. EDGE is just a joke so I won't even mention those speeds.
