I have an iPhone 4s. The data on it is pretty slow.

I just got it a couple months ago and havent had an iphone before so nothing really to convert it to but it seems quite slow and others have made occasionally made comments. I have 4G on so thats not the issue. And today even on Wifi its pretty slow. Please help

Thanks
Dan
 
The 4S doesn't have 4G LTE so you're stuck on 3G, which is slow.
 
Do a speed test dan and post the results.
If you're on fast wifi then it should be better then on carrier data.
AT&T 4G is just a faster 3G hspa+ network.
Unless you mean the phone is slow and not the internet speed.

Thanks man. I did a speedtest.

FYI I'm in Canada and on Fido, not on AT&T
