Does 3G affect WiFi speeds?

3G networks have speeds of up to 3.1 megabits per second (Mbps) or more , which is similar to cable modem speeds. A 3G network’s speed varies, however, due to factors such as location, network traffic, and signal strength.

T-Mobile: “T-Mobile One” plans offer unlimited mobile hotspot use at 3G (that’s 0.512Mbps ) speeds.

With minimum consistent Internet speeds of 144Kbps, 3G was supposed to bring “mobile broadband.” There are now so many varieties of 3G, though, that a “3G” connection can get you Internet speeds anywhere from 400Kbps to more than ten times that .
