I have a pixel 6 on Google Fi. The cell coverage at my new home is not great. If I have my preferred network type set to 5G I have no Internet connectivity. If I manually change it to LTE I get connectivity (albeit slow).

Shouldn’t the phone try this on its own? If not, is there a legitimate app that will do this for me transparently and effectively?

    maybe then you want to try manually falling back to LTE. from the docs:

    LTE: This setting should only be selected if experiencing service issues in locations that offer multiple network types and only LTE is needed.

      Yeah, that’s what I’ve been doing. It’s annoying though because I have good 5G coverage in other parts of the city and I don’t want to have to remember to switch back and forth manually 🤷🏼‍♂️
