Experiencing Slow Ltd? - AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4

Is anyone else experiencing Slow LTE issues? Even when I was at 4 bars on the freeway by the Vegas Strip where I usually get good speed I was at like 1.5MBPS. At home now and still around 2 or so. With my Note 3 I would run speed tests all the time with great speed. I have added the Note 3 APN and haven't noticed much change. Will be testing more tomorrow. Just wanted to get anyone else's thoughts? Using at my house as I have the Note 3 for a year and never got speed results this low.

yeah but the speedtest results show he was on a cellular signal.
Have you tried restarting the phone? And have you asked anyone else what sort of speeds they are getting in that area?
I'm not seeing any issues with LTE speeds..

Lol I was on Cellular I turned Wifi off. Also my Cable is 100MBPS so trust me it wasn't that
I'm going to test at the Att store tomorrow and try with their in store demo unit. Don't know who in Vegas I can ask. Because no one I know has the phone yet!!!

Same issue here. Same for Note3 though. I usually notice it when indoors. You can switch to 4g instead. *#*#4636#*#* will take you to the menu where you can specify connection preferences. It will last till reboot. Otherwise call At&t and complain. Maybe they will do something.

I've been having slow lte speeds Here in chicagoland. I've had better speeds on previous phones. And I've noticed I've tried the FCC speed test app and the -dm for the signal strength is different from that showing up in the phone settings

(Q) help 4g upload speeds terrible

I live in Warner robins GA and as it is I have been in a 4g test area for close to 7 months and fortunately I am on 12m internet but when I would like to use 4g away from the house my upload speeds are garbage. Does anyone know how to fix.
Here's my setup

This is with subpar signal. My typical wifi results are 12+m down and 5m upload so I know its not the phone. Any ideas?

That isn't horrible, but not as good as it can be. I find that my 4G upload speeds top out around 1-1.2mbps. I've heard that the upload speeds are capped at 1mb, and I've never gotten above 1.2mbps on upload. Do you ever reach any higher than what it showed in your screen cap? My up and download speeds fluctuate massively on 3g and 4g. Very inconsistent. My averages aren't bad, but I could test 4 times in 10 minutes and have wildly different results each time.
Ok. That makes sense. Odd that 4g uploads aren't able to push more info. Thanks, now that u mention it I don't think I have seen anyone get 2+m uploads
Upload speeds by nature are generally slower, so you aren't doing too bad there.

4g lte is live in the Chicago suburbs!!!!

Well, we've been seeing it for about a month, but its been real spotty. Good speeds, but spotty. Yesterday I finally got it at my house. I usually grab it for a little while on the way home from work, but it cuts out. Round trip from home to work for me is about 75 miles. From New Lennox to North Aroura. I've had good late since I left this morning, all afternoon in naperville, and even inside buildings. Finally my gnex will fly w/out WiFi! Thanks sprint!!! Better late than never!
I'll post some pics w speed test results on my lunch.

I get really good speeds in Joliet on VZW's LTE too. My cousins live there and I visit a few times a year.

Wifi Drops

Trying to figure out if this is an issue for others or I just have a defective phone. My Verizon M9 has been occasionally dropping signal throughout the past 2 days that I've had it. It's not a signal strength issue and none of my other devices have this problem, so it's not my router.
Anyone else out there a effected by wifi drops on this phone? My build number is below, for comparison.

Have not seen this on mine. Wi-Fi performance has been better than the m8 for me. Netgear r8000 here.
Same here we have 3 m9's in house an no WiFi issue @dottat nice router i got same one
I use UniFi Access Points all over my home due to the size and no issues with WiFI whatsoever so far.
Thanks for the replies, I may be taking it to the store then to swap out since it's looking like the wifi on this phone is kinda defective.

If you disable the switch to cellular setting does it stay connected?
Or disable the Wi-Fi optimization.

[Q] Are you having issues with your S6 Edge Internet

Hey all, don't know if I got a bad S6 Edge 64 GB Gold but wanted to see the feedback with others about this. I sometime feel like my Note 4 was superior to the s6 Edge when it comes to the Internet radio. Sometime the speeds are terrible. Anyone else experience this ?
Please advise.

I've had some great luck with speeds on this thing.

lol Somehow I missed the post divider and thought the posted images were of his slow data speeds. I was thinking, "Man, if that's slow I wanna see what his normal speeds are!".

I definitely don't have any problems with that. Speedtest on this phone gives me the highest scores I've ever had on T-mobile's network.
Here. I'll provide screen shots.
Here's me speed
I'm also getting bad signal. I'm getting about 13 Mbps down and 10 Mbps up on my ATT S6 edge. My last phone, the LG G2 D800, was getting about 70 Mbps down in the same location.
So sorry, didn't realize this was just the T-mobile thread. Disregard this comment. Sorry again.
Heres mine
These are my numbers. I had the galaxy note edge previously and my download was around 25-30mbps and upload was 6-10mbps. Idk what's going on lol

Question 5G Network

I have the Google Pixel 6 Pro by Verizon and I have a 5G tower about 1.5 miles from my house. I get really good speeds or so I thought. When I run the speedtest app I get around 75mb of download and about 50 of upload. My neighbor using his Samsung S21 Ultra get at least double my speeds. Now we both have about 3 bars of cell service when we are at our houses, but when we go to where the tower is we have 5 bars of service. He gets 330mb of dl and about 70 upload. I get about 150 dl and 50 up. His speedtest app reads 5G Verizon Network and mine reads LTE Verizon Network. I went to Verizon and got a new sim card, I have rebooted the phone several times and reset the network in the settings but no luck.
I read an article here on this but I'm still confused why the S21 would show 5G Verizon where the GP6Pro shows LTE Verizon. I am attaching pics below. We are both standing at the same place using the same network. His reads 5G mine reads LTE... Just wondering if anyone else has the same issue.

Ensure that you are indeed on 5G and not LTE in settings
I finally got 5g and got 634mb download which was surprising and was indoors too and still get LTE on my Speedtest app also.
