Verizon Note 8 4g connection issue - Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers

Is anyone else experiencing slow 4g connection with Verizon Note 8? My 4g speed tests have dramatically dropped at home and at work.

Super slow 4g on Verizon
Yeah I just switched from my S7 yesterday, went from 40-50mbps all over my house with the S7, to 2-3mbps with the Note 8. I got an update just now too, didn't fix it. The ping is also terrible and the connection drops. It's pretty much worthless without Wi-Fi.

Mine should be arriving in the next few hours and that'll be one of the first things that I test. I can put up with many little quirks and flaws, but a 4g device with crappy 4g? That would be a definite deal breaker and quick return to Best Buy.

I have not had any problems. Speeds have been good.

losing router hot spot signal

How can I improve the quality of my hot spot? I have wifi signal for a time and then it is gone. I travel all over the country, and allot of the time I am in areas with no wifi where I am staying. I could really use some help with this. I just got the Samsung epic touch so I could have the router with me and not be lost like I am now.
So I will not get an answer to this??
Hotspot as in your phone as a hotspot or a router/hotspot? Also don't walk away too far from it.
If as in router then try a windsurfer

An external USB wireless adapter with an antenna will probably give you about 35% better reception. Look for a bulky device with the largest antenna.
Something like this:

S6 Active signal issue

Just got my S6 Active for two days, but I feel the signal is not very good, my wife's S6 always have 5 bars while I have 3-4 bars.
Last night we were at art museum, I lost connection and barely got one bar signal, of course my wife got 5 bars, we both using AT&T.
Any one else have this problem? I think this phone suppose to have better signal, because you know, it's Active version.
BTW, the battery is good.

Same Here
I live in Colorado and AT&T's coverage is awful here anyway, but when I went from my s4 to s6 active, it got worse. I now have little to no service in my home (I live in town). I'm hoping there is a fix, because I love the phone. This is the only real issue I have had with it.

Slow LTE Data speeds compared to other devices

Me and my fiance just got the Gold S6 Edge, mine is 64gb and hers is 32gb. On Speedtest app were'd both only getting about 5mb download speeds. On my HTC M8 I used to get about 40-50Mb. And it's not the network, because I ran it alongside my Xpera Z2 Tablet on LTE, and got almost 40Mb. But WiFi is much faster on the S6, I get about 82Mb on the S6, but only about 60 on the Z2. I have also tried enabling advanced calling, but no difference in network speed.
First pic is S6, second is Z2

That's crazy, I'll have to check mine.

Okay well now network speed is normal on my phone after rebooting a couple times and enabling Advanced Calling. Haven't tested on my fiance's phone yet.

Question Wifi 6 extremely slow on S21 Ultra exynos

Hi all, i have just received my S21 Ultra (coming from OnePlus 8 Pro). all good so far, except that i had to reinstall Google Play Services and opt out of Beta as it was casuing me all sorts of slowness issues.
Question on the remaining issue that i cant solve - does anyone else experienced WiFi slowness on a Wifi 6 mesh setup? speeds start off around 600 Mbps, then after awhile, it will drop to 9 Mbps.
thanks,
Maybe is ur router? I have GT-AX11000 ASUS router and i have 2.4Gbps WiFi 6 Speed.

That's some nice download speed you got there. I wonder if you could go to the same spot where you got this speed, and download RX Monitor app from the play store on to your device and send a screenie of the main screen as that should show the frequency bands which 3uk is using when connected to the 5G network. I wanna know the band and bandwidth of the 5G band in use.
The App should show something like this on the main screen
There's a small Three mast just down the road from where I work and get similar speeds there, no nowhere else sadly and it had very limited range... I'd love to why it's in that location.
5G coverage on Three is garbage for me at least, but it works well, when available.
