When using my 4G Motorola USB from Clear, I get about 8Mbps when connected directly to my laptop.

But when I plug the same card into my Clear PHS300 I only get 2.6Mbps constantly.

Is there some sort of speed limiter on this device? Or is there a setting I can change to get the correct speed out of my modem?

I have the Phs300 with the U300.
I can't seem to get wimax to work when I connect the U300 directly to my Laptop. But, when I connect it to the Phs300 I get Wimax but it taps out a 3Mbps. I'm also currently on a quest to find what speeds people are getting with the Phs300.

I googled and didn't find any speed tests, try the methods refrenced in the attached articles oyu cna set the ehternet port to WAN and connect a wireless client and see what speeds you get, this will show the max throughput of the chipset in the PHS, relate that to you 4G speeds and your all set.

Try this,

Disable Traffic Shaping, Disable SPI, and if you have a small usb extension cable try placing it between the modem and the router.

Any updates on this?

I've tried the suggestions in this thread but haven't had any luck in breaking the 2.5Mbps "barrier"

This thing isn't much better than a 3g Mifi if I can't get up over 2.5Mbps

Still maxing out at 2Mbps 2.5 here.

There's been discussion over at http://www.howardforums.com/forumdisplay.php?f=471 for Wimax Speeds.

Maybe I'll start a Thread over there and see if we get any feedback.
