Verizon<\/span><\/a> is famous for quickly adapting to the ever-changing network standards. It is a characteristic that places the service provider well above others. When the data networking protocol changed from 3G to 4G and then <\/span>5G<\/span><\/a>, Verizon ensured they upgraded their service to accommodate these new changes.<\/span><\/p>\n However, our concern is with Verizon\u2019s 4G LTE feature that most users report stops working from time to time.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n 4G LTE<\/span><\/a> is a form of 4G technology developed by the <\/span>3<\/span>rd<\/span> Generation Partnership Project<\/span><\/a> (3GPP), and it is faster and more efficient than the traditional 3G networks. 4G LTE uses advanced modern equipment to standardize cellular networks to improve global compatibility.<\/span><\/p>\n However, 4G LTE is not as fast as true 4G hence why it is referred to as 3.95G. <\/span><\/p>\n LTE stands for <\/span>Long Term Evolution<\/span><\/a>, and its main plan was to increase internet speeds and <\/span><\/p>\n capacity for mobile phones and cellular devices. LTE is, therefore, an improvement in service delivery from cellular companies like Verizon. Even though it\u2019s an improvement to existing standards, this connection standard does not come with its drawbacks.<\/span><\/p>\n Sometimes Verizon’s LTE might stop working, and it is signified by the disappearance of the LTE icon on the top of your phone screen. Often, when this happens, people do not know what to do. <\/span><\/p>\n Well, worry no more as we look at what solutions you can try to re-establish Verizon\u2019s LTE feature and get you back on track.<\/span><\/p>\n Switching the phone’s airplane mode on the off disconnects and then re-establishes all connections on your phone.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n It could solve your LTE issue by refreshing the connections to Verizon’s cell towers.<\/span><\/p>\n You can adjust airplane mode settings by going to <\/span>Settings<\/b> on your <\/span>iPhone<\/b> and then turning on the <\/span>Airplane mode<\/b>. <\/span><\/p>\n Wait for at least 15 seconds before you turn it off. You can do this at least twice to be safe.<\/span><\/p>\n To enable the Airplane mode on your Android device, go to <\/span>Settings>Network & Internet<\/b>. <\/span><\/p>\n Then tap on <\/span>Airplane mode<\/b> to activate it.<\/span><\/p>\n Alternatively, you can access the Airplane mode settings by swiping down the home screen through the Quick Access Menu.<\/span><\/p>\n Then tap on the Airplane icon to activate the settings on both Android and iPhone. Follow the same procedure to deactivate the settings.<\/span><\/p>\n LTE connections are still not fully widespread in all areas with Verizon cellular service. Service providers often need to upgrade their infrastructure to have LTE standards on their networks. <\/span><\/p>\n But such upgrades are costly to conduct and maintain, thus why LTE is still not everywhere. Also, the enhancements can cause network outages since the company will require to improve its system maintenance. <\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Verizon\u2019s 4G LTE Coverage Map (Source \u2013 <\/i><\/b>Verizon<\/i><\/b><\/a>)<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n Surprisingly urban areas can also be out of LTE coverage. Therefore, one needs to identify which areas are out of reach for Verizon LTE.<\/span><\/p>\n Therefore, there are chances that you are in an area that does not receive the LTE coverage; hence it is not working on your device.<\/span><\/p>\n To rule out such a possibility, move from where you are and check whether LTE is working. <\/span><\/p>\n If possible, consider going to higher altitudes, as higher altitudes have <\/span>better network coverage<\/span><\/a> due to lesser signal interference.<\/span><\/p>\nWhat is 4G LTE?<\/h2>\n
