Probably just the area. My HSpa+ speeds are so erratic lately.. sometimes I only get like 50kb per sec its horrible.. att needs to step it up and upgrade the network.

Some ROMs take away 4g.. I don't know about the ROM you're currently on, but mine has said I have 4G when I was really limited to 3G. I know this isn't much help, but I've had similar encounters and it was the ROM I was running.

It says LTE:14.
Just wondering for those with good speeds, which baseband are you running? I'm on I747UCLH9. And I hadn't had high download speeds since I flashed it.

Yeah I agree. The reason I say that is because one of the guys here has Metro and he's having really spotty connection as well all of a sudden.

I am having the same issue. Is anyone living in the dfw area on tmobile network having data issues? I go outside I get 15 mbps I sit in my house I get 300kpbs. Ive called tmobile and they are looking into it. But its been like this for almost a month now. You should call them and tell them whats going on. First call customer care and tell them the issue. They gave me credit on my account because why pay for something that dont work right then they'll connect you to tech support. Good luck. If we get more people to call in maybe they do something nationwide.

That upload speeds are faster because they're not as heavily impacted by users as download speeds are. In other words, your local site is over capacity and its resulting in slower speeds for everyone. Once sprint upgrades your site, it'll be epic.

You can check by going into settings, about phone, status and see what network type says.

Example
Correct. Not LTE, but fair speed for H+, arguably slightly faster than the typical 3G. You're getting the speed I used to get when I was on my SGSII (non-skyrocket) until I upgraded to the SGN2 with LTE here in San Diego.
Thanks. Its says im running LTE:14. So I guess the question now is why am I not getting lte speeds!?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using xda app-developers app
Just ran another test, slightly faster speeds but you can see in the status bar it says 4g instead of h+.
Im running jellythunder perfect storm..which I thought h+ meant lte.

Ok. Than u are getting LTE. The rom u have just isn't showing show in your status bar.

4G=LTE
H, H+ = HSPA (3.5G)
3G = UMTS
This means that when you are in LTE you won't see the LTE symbol but instead 4G.
Depending on the rom u are using of course. In order verify that your ROM is actually using LTE go System Settings --> About Device --> Status. Look under Mobile Network Type.

LTE = faux G as far as I am concerned.
AT&T is still on 3G .. its just 3G+. According to what I have read, LTE (and WiMax) was originally a "transitional technology." Then it was upped to 4G and HSPA+ is now a a transitional tech. Then some1 dumped a lot of money into an offshore account and transitional tech is 4G.
Cue the nerd rage at this point.
LTE Advanced (as well as WiMax v2 or whatever they were going to call it.) are 4G. These are some way away. With big V saying LTE deployment going into 2015, one could guess we won't see "pure" 4G until almost 2020.
Edit: LTE is 100Mb/s down AND up. LTE adv is basically gigabit. As far as the original spec, 4G = gigabit. So .. we aren't quite there yet.

Well, the symbol at the top left says H+. So, no that not LTE, if it where it would say 4G.
But if its an international port than it says 4g, jedi states so in first post

haha .. nothing like downloading (theoretically) a DVD iso in under a minute.
I'd rather have the lower ping time and the lower bandwidth connection than the higher ping time and larger bandwidth connection.
The fact that your ping is so low makes me believe that you might be on LTE. But it could be an excellent 3G connection or whatever ATT likes to call it to make themselves feel superior. I've seen speeds that low however for LTE when the signal isn't very strong.
Here is the SS Of my internet speed.
