Are you seeing the lte logo near your signal strength? 5-7 soungs more like h+

Just because it's an lte phone doesn't mean you have lte coverage right where youre standing it will default back to 3g/h+ if lte isn't present

It looks like 5-7mbps is average for Bell LTE in London.

It all depends on the tower. If it's fibre fed and not too over crowded you can get some pretty amazing speeds. If its over loaded or fed from a point to point wireless speeds can be much less. I've seen anywhere between 5 and 50mbps in the Hamilton area on LTE.

Bell/Telus have better HSPA+ coverage than Rogers, but when it comes to LTE, Rogers has the upper leg. I see a constant 25+ Mbps both ways on LTE but if I stumble into a 4G/HSPA+ zone, I'm lucky to get 2Mbps.

Can everyone read the title. I know other areas get 30/40/50/60+mbps. I am questioning London's speed.

My findings are that London is only getting 6-10 on 4g LTE speed.

I have changed my phone to use only hspa and am getting 14mbps+

Thnx
