Why hasn't AT&T speeds ever gotten better?

[Closingracer]

I wanted to maybe switch to AT&T because after autopay their pre paid unlimited plan is better then Verizons and is note like Verizons beyond unlimited plan which I had before. 22gb before depriortized and 10gb of Hotspot for the same $75 per month. Got the $35 dollar plan with 1gb and speeds were averaging 20 down which was the same when I left them. I was looking for this to be my main broadband device ditching cable and the HD streaming was the factor I was considering changing but the speeds are alot worse then Verizon. Verizon i average around 70 mbps and peak of 185. AT&T I've seen peak of 40 mbps.

I don’t have any issues streaming music or video on my iPhone or in my car and I have unlimited data for both. I don’t experience any buffering, etc., but I understand that service in your location may differ from mine.

It's all about location. I'm less than 2 miles from a Tmobile tower and get horrible LTE in my house and yard. I drive 1/2 a mile to the grocery store and get ludicrous speeds.

This is all over NYC. Was basically only doing speed tests all over.

AT&T speeds on LTE have been fine for me. My problem is in my neighborhood, it drops to 4G and has been that way for years. Would be nice if they improved LTE coverage.
