How to check that you are on 5G
- Look for the 5G icon in the status bar.
- In your phone’s network settings, choose 5G or “Auto” as the preferred network type.
- Make sure your SIM, plan and phone all support 5G.
- Indoors, phones often fall back to 4G when the 5G signal is weak.
Why 5G speed changes from place to place
5G speed depends on your distance to the tower, walls and reflective glass, how many people share the same tower, and which frequency band is used in your area. You can see very high speeds in one spot and ordinary ones in the next room.
Tips for faster 5G
- Test near a window or on an upper floor.
- Toggle airplane mode for a few seconds and reconnect.
- Update your phone and carrier settings.
- With a 5G home router: place it near a window, away from large electrical appliances, and re-test after each move.
