Change signal search to 3G

I live in a very remote location and rely on a Wilson signal booster for cell use. I get 4G with the booster and occaisionally 3G without it. 4G is very slow and almost useless for most things, especially video and sending photos. 3G does everything well. I can watch Youtube wthout interruption and pictures send in a reasonable amount of time.

Is there a way to program the phone so it doesn't seek 4G and 5G? All I want is 3G.

Thanks

Hi @jekyll ,

Select GSM only and check if that resolves the problem

In Settings > More Networks > Mobile Networks > Network mode >GSM only.
