I'm not a technical expert so just trying to figure this out.So if your phone shows 4G,is that the speed from that tower? The reason I am asking is because I was at a location yesterday and when I got...
Yes, that is the speed available at that location. You will generally see 4G (great) 3G (OK) or 1X (nearly unusable) and that can vary even when only moving 5-10 miles. It's also possible that an overloaded tower can switch to 3G to keep everyone online but at a reduced rate. The tower has a limited amount of bandwidth available (a lot, but still it has a limit) which must be divided by all users connected.
