Hello,

I know I'm dealing with an older phone, but I figured I'd ask just in case anyone might have a solution for this.

At my work location, which is in a relatively urban area with excellent signal coverage, my Verizon SIII shows nearly full 4G LTE signal, but routinely gets super slow connectivity, as confirmed when using media streaming apps or Speedtest (less than 1mbps). I had a recent opportunity to do back to back comparisions using my SIM in both a Note 3 and a Note 4, and they got BLAZING fast speeds in the exact same location (20+ mbps).

Any thoughts on why my SIII would get such slower connectivity? Is there anything I can do to try to improve my speeds?

My SIII otherwise works fine. I'm sure there's newer technology and better radios in the Note 3 and Note 4, but to me, it seems that 4G LTE would be 4G LTE on any device in the exact same location.

By the way, this is even outside with no building interference.

Thanks so much!
