it kind sucks going from nice fast 4g speeds to < 15 kbs
Is this something I can call support and ask them to stop throttling me? Or how does it work?

You could in fact be throttled. Did you recieve a text for T-Mobile about them slowing down you data for the rest of the cycle? Throttling is when T-Mobile slows down your data because you overused it, during your month cycle. Hell, I'm on a 5GB cap and I'm throttled. ): Guess you can complain to T-Mobile or wait it out.
Wow I did get a text like that wifi is good though right? Anyway thanks boss for the info

Wifi won't be affected by data throttle.

What do you guys use that makes you use 5GB in a month? I'm done with my month on the 23rd and have only used 1.01GB. I feel like I'm not using my phone to it's full potential lol

As much as you probably pay, id start using it. Hell watch some shows when you not busy or download some music or games or anything. Cause regardless of how much you use your still paying the same price.

AT&T LTE Ratelimiting for unlimited users?

all:
a few days ago I received the infamous 5% email. I am currently sitting at 4.9GB of data usage on the unlimited LTE grandfathered plan. when all of a sudden my up/down is now at 100k/100k almost symmetrical.
wanted to check with a panel of my peers. have any of you experienced this?

You may have better luck with this question in a forum for another LTE phone, or your own phone.
This Galaxy S II does not support LTE.
On my last bill I hit 5GB less than 10 days in, using a lot of Netflix. I managed to end the billing period with just over 8. My norm is 6-7. I have never been throttled, nor accused of tethering (which I don't use).

I can tell you that I'm at 26gigs for this month and I have gotten no notice from att. This is from downloading all podcasts. I'm only doing this for comparison...this obviously isn't typical usage. So now we can confirm the top 5% is a load of crap. Sounds more like they are throttling depending on what you do and not how much you do. There goes net neutrality.

I think the OP has a GSII ****rocket.
Anyways AT&T is known for throttling LTE users for low usage.
On HSPA+ on My note, I hit 11gigs and they threatened to throttle me on Day 28 of my billing cycle. I think they just throttle based on what speed you have. F***ers

Art throttled HSPA speeds

Just got my skyrocket and was throttled 3 says after purchase at 2 gigs. Did the apn trick and I'm now seeing speeds as high as 11megs down. Is this hspa or lte?

What does your icon on status bar say?? And most likely it will be hspa+.

GSM/HSPA. I'm just shocked because one time I had the Matrix and the highest I've ever gotten were 5megs on a lucky day. To get this high is crazy. I'm so ready to screw att lmao.
