I have a Galaxy S20 and there is no options for Network Connections under Mobile Networks and cannot change it back to 4G. I want to revert back to 4G because my 5G speeds are around 10mbps. Screenshot_20210122-204952_Call settings.jpg

I was able to reset it back to 4G with an app called Samsung Band Selection.

Unfortunately, you cannot turn off 5G on  your new 5g phone....  who is your carrier?  Verizon?

 

What you are experiencing is not unusual.  There are many places across the country where 4g/lte data is faster/better than 5g.   

 

The best way to get back on 4g is to replace your 5g sim card with a 4g sim card.  That should take care of your problem... 

 

Btw, your carrier most likely cannot turn off yoiur 5G if you have a 5G phone;  at least that is the way it works with Verizon.   Once it's on, they cannot turn it off;   and neither can you... changing the sim card is the only way....   Good luck!
