常见问题
Does the internet cut off completely once the data allowance is used up?+
It depends on that specific plan's terms. Some throttle speed but still allow basic use; others require buying more data or a new plan. Read that term from the actual plan page purchased, rather than assuming.
Moved to another spot in the same area and it is still just as slow — what next?+
Try selecting a network manually from the plan's supported list. If that does not help, check whether it is an especially busy time, and close background apps that may be competing for bandwidth before concluding it sits outside your control.
Why does the phone show 4G when this city has 5G?+
5G coverage usually does not reach as thoroughly as 4G, particularly indoors or on the outskirts. Once 5G grows too weak, the phone falls back to 4G on its own to keep the connection alive — that is normal device behaviour.
Does a VPN genuinely slow the connection down?+
A VPN's encryption and its detour through a server add steps that naturally reduce perceived speed. If it is suspected as the cause, turning it off briefly to compare is worth trying, while also weighing that VPN's own security purpose.
Everything has been checked and it is still slow — is there nothing left to do?+
If data is not used up, the area is not crowded, and moving position or switching network did not help, contact the team with the plan details and the time the problem occurred, so it can be checked further with the right information.
