Here are some common reasons for a slow Samsung Note 4 internet:

• Poor or weak signal strength
• Weak Wi-Fi network
• Website is experiencing heavy load or too many users are accessing it
• Network congestion or too many users on the network
• Apps running in the background
• Low device memory
• Corrupted or full internet cache
• Outdated or un-updated Note 4 firmware
• Outdated or un-updated browser software
• Data speed limit exceeded or speed reduction reached

Any of the reasons above can cause a slow internet connection on the Samsung Note 4. After you’ve checked what might be causing the weak data connection and you still can’t figure out how to fix the bad internet problem, follow the instructions below to resolve the slow internet issue on the Samsung Note 4.

Make sure Wi-Fi is turned off on the Samsung Note 4

It’s very common for your Samsung Note 4 to still be connected to a weak Wi-Fi signal, so make sure to check if Wi-Fi is disabled or turned OFF. Here’s how you can access the Wi-Fi settings of the Note 4:

1. Turn on the Samsung Note 4.
2. Select Menu.
3. Select Settings.
4. Select Connections.
5. Select Wi-Fi.
6. Turn off Wi-Fi by touching the ON/OFF slider next to Wi-Fi.

Clear the cache on the Samsung Note 4

In most cases, following the method above will help solve the slow internet problem on the Samsung Note 4. But if for some reason the internet is still slow, performing a “wipe cache partition” should fix it. This method won’t delete any data from the Samsung Note 4, so your photos, videos, and messages will remain safe. You can perform the “Wipe Cache Partition” function in the Android recovery mode.

Scan the Samsung Note 4 for malware

If none of the previous methods help resolve the slow internet connection on the Samsung Note 4, check if there is malware on your phone. You can download a free anti-virus app from the Google Play Store. It’s recommended to choose a malware app with good reviews and feedback to get the best results in fixing the weak internet problem on your Samsung Note 4.

If something is detected during the malware scan, try clearing the cache and data on your smartphone. If the problem persists, perform a factory reset on the Samsung Note 4 to restore everything to default. Remember to back up all files and information before proceeding with a factory reset to prevent any data loss.

Get technical support

If you’ve tried everything to fix the slow internet connection on the Samsung Note 4 but still haven’t found a solution, I recommend taking the smartphone back to the store or a repair shop for a physical check-up. If a technician determines that it’s defective, you may receive a replacement unit or have it repaired.
