Hello All,

I recently purchased the S4 and I am noticing an issue with download/upload speeds when I am connected to WiFi. I know that there is an issue with certain routers and that it will connect/disconnect, but I am not experience that issue. For me it is just a speed issue.

At home we have Verizon FIOS and when I test the speed on my computer (via Speedtest.net) it is in the 84Mbps range up and down, but when I connect to the router via WiFi on my GS 4 and use the Speedtest app, I will get an download speed of at max 3-4Mbps and an upload speed of at 6-8Mbps (with a spike of 40Mbps).

I just recently tested my speed at an AT&T Wifi Hotspot, and it was very low (1.5Mbps down, and .5Mbps down).

Is there an issue with my phone?
 
Just out of curiosity, when you tested with your computer were you connected to your FIOS router via Wi-Fi or wired? Your phone using Wi-Fi will never see wired speeds.
