What is 4G?

4G is the next generation of cellular networks and was preceded by 2G and 3G networks.  It allows data to travel faster than it ever has before.  Speeds will vary from 100Mb/s to 1Gb/S.  It is not currently available everywhere in the country right now.  But what most people don't know is that even if your phone says that it's 4G or LTE, that's doesn't mean it is and it doesn't mean that you have access to a 4G or LTE network.  I found an interesting article (it's a little older) but it's about the technology and how we're being fed....misleading?....information:
