Sounds like I've had in the past. Try this:
Turn off VoLTE and wifi calling.
Reboot and test wifi. If your speeds are back then it's because of those things.
I was plagued with the slow wifi issue ever since the Note 4....essentially for two whole years. Finally figured out it was they service being crap in NOCO.

Oh I'm sorry dude. Other than those "tricks" I have no idea what else it might be. My guess is maybe try fresh start again to see if it gets fixed.

Mobile network keeps turning off?

Sometimes when connected to 4G, I will lose data entirely. When I check wireless settings, the mobile network says turning on and won't do anything. A reboot fixes it but it is annoying.
Anyone else experience this?
BAMF Stripped 1.8 w/ leanKernel
yeah me too....actually I have no data at the moment.
*edit Ok now I've moved up to 1x...... WHOOOOOOOOO!

It's Verizon working on their network. People keep trying to troubleshoot it as a software problem, it's a network problem.

Same thing was happening to me all morning. I'm glad to see I am not the only one having this issue. As usual, Verizon Tech support said that there was no issues on their end.

Would that show the phone being unable to turn on the mobile network entirely? Seems weird but I guess I will wait a few days.
i had this too alot when running a froyo radio. i went to mr2.5 and haven't had the issue since.
I was about to ask if anyone was having any weirdness with 4G today... I tested my speeds using the speakeasy website and the upload speeds were fine (2.5-3Mbps) but the download speeds were incredibly slow, under 1 Mbps every time I tried. Guess it's issues with verizon testing the network.

4g fine in chicago 22mbps down, 4 mbps up, speedtest browser test.
the problem is the mobile hotspot software. just download the open garden wifi tether on the market
Yeah I'm having the same problem. I went to VZW and they are sending me a replacement phone. I usually run CM7 but that's an extra pain to get data back. Hopefully this problem is resolved soon.

Definitely big red doing work... CSR's aren't informed about that stuff, and yes, our 3g, 4g, and even 1x operate on a new section of the network.... If it persists use the modem settings @ ##778# edit mode, password 000000, turn revA on....

All you have to do is go to settings - wifi- forget the network and reconnect and you will not have Error 04 anymore

I'm getting frequent Er081's on my TMobile Note Edge. I've tried 3 different ISPs with speeds from 10m-500m, tweaked the QOS and COS on each, multiple wifi's etc.
It will usually initiate the call. But it won't be long before call just drops, anywhere from 15-60 mins in. My calls are always long (>30mins), and I've yet to normally terminate a call. Of course I'm now getting asked what's going on.
On one occasion, the ER081 stayed on the drop-down and wouldn't go away until I rebooted phone (Edge).
IMHO this is a wonderful feature, but TMo is not ready for primetime on this one? Is it true Note 3's and older phones work fine?

WiFi problems after 4.4.4

Hey guys and gals. Is anyone else having problems with their WiFi not connecting to certain networks after the 4.4.4 update? My phone will connect to my home WiFi with no problem..but won't connect to any other WiFi source. Any ideas??
Sent from my XT1080 using XDA Free mobile app
No issues here. Connects at home, work and wifi at other people's houses.

Have you tried changing your wifi frequency on your phone?
Yep..it works fine at my house which is a 5gjz wifi network. But won't connect to anything else. Not even the mobile hotspot on my S5
Edit: changed the frequency band on my galaxy s5 mobile hotspot to 5ghz and now my Droid connects to it. It seems the phone will no longer connect to any 2.4 GHz networks

Solo...Verizon sent me a replacement device..and lo and behold..I'm having the exact same issue. I can not connect to any 2.4Ghz WiFi networks. I'm at a total loss as to how to fix this. Verizon replaced the phone with no argument.. Yet my replacement does exactly the same things.

Go to Settings > WiFI and press the menu icon, choose Advanced > WiFi Frequency Band. Ensure this setting is "Auto"

Could it be your wifi router is going bad? are you having this problem connecting to networks other than your home network?
Yes. Nothing that runs on 2.4ghz. At my work that's all we have. At home on 5ghz works perfect. Router is dual band..and my S5 connects fine. Also when I turn on my S 5 mobile hotspot and set it to 2.4 gigahertz that doesn't work either

Given that no one else (from what I saw here) can recreate, I would say it isn't software but hardware. CLNR devices do have issues. Call Verizon again and see what they say
I've contacted both Moto and Verizon. Verizon is sending me another replacement. Hopefully this one works better than the one I have in my hand at the moment. The strange thing is that the phone I had before this one was fine before 4.4.4. Sooo idk. If I don't have any luck with this next replacement then I will call Moto and have them send me a replacement.
Edit: its a shame too..cause this phone is ridiculously smooth
Sent from my XT1080 using XDA Free mobile app
UPDATE!!!: Soooo after 2 hrs in Verizon...an hour on the phone with customer service..and and hour on the phone with Moto tech support..a chance call from my Motorola rep and she fixed my phone in 2 seconds. Apparently..there is a glitch in 4.4.4 that prevents the lower frequency wifi from working with Bluetooth. Turning off Bluetooth and a quick reboot and WiFi is perfect!!

LTE/Mobile data issue loading websites and apps

Seems that for some reason, I am unable to load certain websites, as well as my netflix and u-verse apps will not load videos or movies. This only happens when I am not on wifi(only on mobile data). I contacted sprint through chat and their solutions weren't really applicable to the problem. Any one else having similar issues or ideas?

Hotspot working with PE1

Ok, I did not want to start a new thread but since this is not a mod and pertains to PE1 firmware only I started it.
Just and FYI of my history with the S7 Edge
Purchased it from Best Buy and took the first update by then the APN settings were grayed out and no hope for the hotspot mod to work as reported. As each update came out still no luck.
Then the last PE1 update popped up on my phone and I installed it. After a couple reboots, I took a chance and turned on the hotspot expecting for it to come on and then give me the subscription error. To my surprise it never did, I was able to login to the hotspot with my tablet and get internet.
Thinking it was a fluke, I rebooted several times and kept trying it with the same results. Sometimes I would even wait 10 to 30min before turning on the hotspot.
I have never been able to edit my APN or get hotspot to work before PE1. Installed PE1 and now it works?
Strange, yes but I am not complaining. Can anyone else that had no hotspot and installed PE1 check theirs to see if you have the same results.
Which plan do you have? I'm on the new family unlimited an. U limited data and 3gb free Hotspot.

Did you check to see that you weren't using the wifi sharing feature? Did you check that APNs are editable?
i havent isntalled the latest update but yeah, thats is a work around to get hostpot on if your APN settings are grayed out. Just restar your phone and as soon as it gets back on go to your settings and turn hospot on. It doesnt work for me the first time I tried after a reboot, I get the error message but the second time(without rebooting) always work. Im on sprint with the unlimited data plan.

That workaround is common knowledge and has nothing to do with this specific update. We are trying to find out if APNs are editable so that we don't have to constantly restart the phone for a chance of getting hotspot working . . . OP was not clear on whether he was able to edit his APNs to get hotspot working or not.
op your hotspot dont work your wifi sharing. in hotspot config turn off wifi sharing and try it
unless you have a pbc original rom (like i do lol) you have to do as stated above restart phone, turn on hotspot fast before the software loads up that blocks it
I just updated my Good Lock application today. I noticed hotspot is working without restating or without the mod.
