Hi there!
Hope all is well. I recently changed my plan from 10GB 3G to 20GB 4G but have yet to have my phone connected at 4G. Currently it's as LTE and the only other option under my data settings is 3G. I changed before renewal and my renewal was on the 9th of September.
I had searched the community for answers but all I found is that you had to wait 48 hours for the plan to kick in. However, it's past 48 hours and I've rebooted my phone (also advised by the community) multiple times with no success.
Would you be able to help me on this issue?
Thanks so much
Giovanna

alexandf: There was no question about phone calls nor is there anything for a CSA to fix

There's nothing to reset. The customer is getting 4g LTE speeds as advertised.

yes it's support and can you try for reset network setting.

The customer has shown a picture of the phone connected to an LTE network. It has also already been established that the speed has increased. There's no reason to contact a CSA.

They're essentially the same thing.

I see. Also because it only shows LTE and not 4G LTE, just wanted to clarify! (its just for the screenshot I've reconnected to my wifi). I'm wondering why it doesnt show 4G in my cellular data settings instead of 3G. I assume, like before, I'd have to option to select between 3G or LTE. Photo attached.

I did speedtest.net and it showed as 43mbps however it did not show upload speed so I did one from google and upload showed as 9.54mbps.
What I'm confused about is that when I had the 3G speed constantly showed my network as LTE, would you be able to help me understand why if that is meant to be a 4G network?
Thanks for your time 🙂
Your speed has already been upgraded. Speeds provied by the carrier are a best effort attempt. Unofrtunately, network conditions aren't allow the full speeds.

@computergeek541 yes! I've checked as soon as my plan renewed and it says plan cycle september 8 - october 8. so that's why I'm confused by the other reply as I had LTE show when I had 3G too, so wouldnt think that that was 4G.

HI @gimonastero LTE is 4G. So, you said the phone showing LTE, then you are connected to the 4G network.
The next thing you want to do is the check your speed. Go to Speedtest.net or search for the app and the run the speed test. Let us know how fast it can download and upload

The LTE signal could be weak or the capacity oversaturated. If you log into your account, are you on the correct plan?
