Question Is AT&T or Verizon’s data service faster?
Hypothesis AT&T will be faster than Verizon. I researched multiple websites on the subject and the majority of the comments said that AT&T was faster.
Materials • An AT&T iPhone 4 • A Verizon iPhone 4 • The app Speedtest.net
Procedure • Find a unique location • Place the AT&T and Verizon phones side by side • Start the test in Speedtest.net on both phones simultaneously • At the end of the test, record the answers • Repeat 3 times • Move to a new location
Variables IV: The service providers – AT&T and Verizon DV: The speed - ping, download, and upload CV: Type of phone - iPhone 4
Ping-a system for testing whether internet systems are responding and how long, in milliseconds (ms), it takes for them to respond. • Download-to transfer (software, data, character sets, etc.) from a distant to a nearby computer, from a computer to a peripheral device, or from a smaller computer to a larger computer. • Upload- to transfer (software, data, character sets, etc.) from a smaller computer to a larger computer. • mbps- megabits per second
Results Average AT&T Verizon
In conclusion, AT&T is up to twice as fast versus Verizon. AT&T ping was 83.4% faster. AT&T had 145.4% faster downloads. AT&T had 56.8% faster uploads.
