[Galaxy S II General] pelpa87:
Well, as you may or may not know, there are 3 available APNs for Claro Argentina.

Igprs.claro.com.ar

Internet.ctimovil.com.ar

ba.amx

all of them the only thing that differs betwen them is the APN. User and Password is the same for both. Later i'll tell you each configuration.

The intention of this Thread is to tell you which one is working better, and give you some stats about it. All this test were made with an AOKP ROM, that in the moment of the test, wasn't supporting H+ (wspap:15)

As you probably know, in 4G provided by Claro Argentina, average speed must be around 1Mps with some intervals that speed can rise up to 3Mbps. (That's speech given). This really depends on time of the day, zone, antenna, traffic and many other things.

I made 3 consecutively test for each APN. Every set of test right after the previous one.

The results:

BA.AMX:

Ping

:..........1test:72ms..........2test:71ms.........3test:72ms

Download

:...1test:836kbps......2test:962kbps.....3test:920kbps

Upload

:.......1test:403kbps......2test:422kbps.....3test:426kbps

Download/Upload graphic was pretty even all the time. no ups and downs. Every Modem come with this APN presetted.

IGPRS:

Ping

:..........1test:75ms..........2test:96ms.........3test:68ms

Download

:...1test:955kbps......2test:524kbps.....3test:900kbps

Upload

:.......1test:424kbps......2test:335kbps.....3test:407kbps

Download/Upload graphic was the most inestable of all 3. And as you can see, this APN is the most unreliable. it has Micro-cuts every now and then. This is because every phone comes with this APN as default. So it gets very congested.

Internet.ctimovil:

Ping

:..........1test:131ms..........2test:150ms...........3test:129ms

Download

:...1test:981kbps........2test:924kbps........3test:1014kbps

Upload

:.......1test:486kbps........2test:427kbps........3test:506kbps

Download/Upload graphic was pretty similar to BA.AMX's one. pretty stable. but, response time is much lower than the other. this is because is an old APN. Server response is slower. But as you can se, it had the best download and upload rate. Few phones have this APN setted, as it was the one used in old phones. that makes APN to be more free of users, giving us a bigger bandwith.

Personally I use Internet.ctimovil. But when it isn't working i change to BA.AMX. almost never I Use IGPRS, cause is very clumpsy.

APN Configurations

As i Said before, there are almost the same configurations for each one. Only 2 Things differents betwen each.

First of all, the APN name.
