Apple Event: May 7th at 7 am PT
I use wifi whenever I can. But when I'm out of reach from a wifi spot, I turn it off. For some reason in my home when I turn the wifi off in my phone, it says GPRS. Before, it would say I have 4G network. GPRS is as slow as molasses and it's not helping me when I'm bored somewhere with no wifi. Why is that happening and is there a way to fix that?
iPhone 4S
have you checked your cellular settings?
Settings>cellular see whether LTE or 3G is turned off.
I have iPhone 4S, forgot to mention it. But yeah I have checked and the cellular data is on, but nowhere it says whether it's 3G/4G/LTE/etc. I'm with AT&T and I've had this phone for almost 2 years and it would always have 4G when there was no wifi.
Did you try to reset? Hold the home button and the sleep/wake button at the same time until your device turns off, and keep holding until you see the apple back on the screen. This usually clears issues like this for me (I'm also on AT&T, currently on 5s but problem existed since the 4!)
Why is my phone saying GPRS where the wireless network is supposed to be?
