Hey John Doe we have to take note that this speeds are also dependent on all the nodes in the UMTS network all pegged to the 3GPP Rx versions +QOS and also the HSxxxx.Factor in QAM and MIMO.

@JOHN DOE "Actually, Safcom, Orange and Airtel can all do 42 Mbps if they so wished.
But would users afford the modem?:-)"

Very wrong statement.Or make me understand this statement well

The main thing in this whole discussion is the multiple access technology used, key word ACCESS..that means the air interface. But heck, instead of all this uninformed speculation, just log on to these vendor websites, for example Ericsson learning, or 3GPP, this info is all over with all the standards, the system specs, expected speeds, theoretical and implemented. From there you can sort the wheat from the chaff with regards to these mobile operators trumpeting their data products here, who is selling what. In short am saying spare a little time and read, the information is all out there.....

All things being constant, the contention ratio[1] is the biggest factor that determines whether you are "lucky" or not.
Transmission bandwidth and radio resources are other factors.However, resiliency and reliability (on whether you get the service or not) come a close second. Ability of a network to offer redundancy (BGP, MPLS,et cetra), sudden spikes, bursty traffic, power outages, et cetra under those unforeseen acts of God (devil?) is a strong third.

Newer networks (in KE, strike off Yu)  might seem to offer better throughput (new technologies is still a bluff) primarily due to [1] above.

@ Dennis

7 mbps to the BTS you are lucky..

Some networks have 3 mbps to the BSC -- wacha hata BTS..
