AT&T limited upload speeds?

[scaots]

Engadget had an article today about lots of areas having poor AT&T upload speeds around 100kbps. Personally I've been seeing about 140kbps since I got my Nexus One over the weekend. Never any significantly higher. I'm near Baltimore. Download speeds are great at home (2-3Mbps) and marginal at work (around 500kbps or so, but I think that is normal for the location). If this doesn't improve soon, I'm going back to EVO even if the plan is more than I want to pay. Anyone else have AT&T issues? (I know, not too many Android users on AT&T!)

Two weeks now... this is getting old. I guess all those iPhone users don't know the difference cause there isn't much ruckus about this.
I still haven't been able to try my N1 yet at full upload speed since this issues started just before I got it.
I'm off contract end of the month and might consider going back to EVO between upload issue and speed of connection at my office. (Only get 300-700kbps there.)

There was a ruckus about it, you just missed it. You must have also missed when AT&T fessed up and pinned the blame on some faulty software written by Alcatel-Lucent. (which provides the equipment for the HSUPA) They were supposed to be reverting to the pre-upgrade settings to restore network speeds, but they must not have done that in your area.

Finally to be resolved! ...within another three weeks. Can't wait for upload that takes less than a minute to send a photo.

Has anyone seen any increase in the upload speeds? I am still only getting maybe 100k down from 1m+ when I had my nexus one. I thought by now I would see some increases in michigan. Talked to att again they act like they don't know anything.

I guess technically they are still within that few weeks time frame to apply the fix everywhere. I saw speeds get fixed at home about the end of July or very early August but it was another week or so before they improved where I work, so it is slowly rolling out. Have you had a chance to try your phone in different areas lately? Even just in a different town? Also 100k up is not unreasonable if the signal is weak or the network is congested, but should be better under good conditions.
