ATT's LTE Throttling

[Trek2100]

Yeah, you're not gonna hit that 5GB anytime soon.

Mine, on the other hand, says 2411.05 of 10,238,976 MB.

For some reason mine (as I've seen for others) says 1MB for $2. Pretty sure it's meaningless anyway since you hit the throttle long before that anyway. Wonder if the difference means something else...like you've been flagged for high usage or something??? Just thinking here....

I really don't have a clue. My regular data usage has never been more than 250MB in any month so I know that I've never been throttled. Oh well....

So... does anyone know how much throttling ATT does for LTE? Right now for 4G, it goes to almost unusable. Is that the same for LTE or does it slow down to say... 4G speeds?

This is literally the one thing that I would upgrade my iPhone to a 5 if the throttling speed is better.

The throttling is related to bandwidth not latency. Latency in theory will be similar regardless of throttling. So in theory being throttled on LTE will still give you quick data because of lower latency.
