Does anyone have an idea if Verizon is slowing down wifi reception on your cell phone? I have a Moto 5G and for the past few months my wifi reception is slower than molasses even though I have a very strong wifi signal. And I am not talking for downloading videos; I am talking about opening news articles that I want to read. If I try to open one my phone times out but if I turn wifi off, it opens right away. As a consequence of this my data usage has gone way up. So far I haven't gone over my 4Gb limit but it has been very close. I do have the data saver option turned on. I have cleaned my cache and make sure I keep open apps to a minimum. Suggestions?
Cellular signals have nothing at all to do with WiFi. You say when you turn WiFi off your page will open. If you are using WiFi on your phone then you are not using Verizon cellular signal. Of course your data usage goes up when you are not using WiFi as that is the only time you are using Verizon's cellular signal. Whose WiFi connection are you using when you have WiFi turned on?
