LTE Download speed half my upload speed.

Was wondering why today my upload speeds have been nearly twice to over three times my download. Was comparing AT&T hspa + to LTE a few minutes ago.

I've seen this before a few times, and I imagine the reason is during high load periods of the day forward link (download) demand is much higher than reverse link demand, but the same spectrum is devoted to both, so the download speeds are hurt more than the upload speeds.

That or speedtest isn't measuring correctly, which has happened before.

I understand that. It just threw me off because it was 10 at night and have yet to see that happen even during peak times here. Anyway thanks for the reply.
