Drop in 4G LTE Speeds this week

[fallenclocks]

I have started to experience drops in 4G LTE speeds in my area. I use speedtest.net to test my internet speed on my phone and I usually have around 8Mbps down and .7Mbsp upload. I now have download speeds of 1.2Mbps and upload speeds of 0.1Mbps. I am wondering if this has something to do with the tower in my area. I tested the speed on different phones and plans and they have the same results that I have. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Note:

I have the same amount of signal as I did before the speed slow down.

I have the same device (other devices also experience this problem though).

Ping is also really bad. I went from ~70ms to ~400ms.

fallenclocks-

I appreciate you being proactive with your 4G speeds as this plans an important role on your phone. What zip code are you in? Does the 4G speed drops at a certain location? What happens if you move to another area? Is it happening indoors/outdoors? Please keep us posted to provide the best resolution.

I experience the same speed results when I am outside and inside. My zip code is 65625, and when I am in other areas, the speed seems to improve.

I noticed the change in speed about a week ago, and I have not made any device changes. We have a phone that is on a separate plan that uses Verizon and it is also experiencing the drop in 4G speeds.

We certainly want to get you back to top speed, fallenclocks. I would like to takea  closer look at how the network is interacting with these devices. I have sent you a Direct Message and will look forward to working with you further.

Thank you for providing us with your ZIP Code. We see that coverage is great in your area. Have you tried turning the device off and then back on?
