I need a new phone. Which bands are 4g on? Can my phone just support one of the bands or does it need multiple ones? I'm in Oregon. Thanks.
 
From the ATT forum: AT&T 4G HSPA and HSPA+ use 850Mhz(Band 5) and 1900Mhz(Band 2) bands but it all depends on area if they own a license. LTE uses Band 17(700Mhz), Band 5(850Mhz), Band 2(1900Mhz), Band 4(1700/2100Mhz) currently.
All phones support multiple bands, but it will require the one available in your area in order to connect to it :)
 
In large part of USA , AT&T LTE network is band 17. Some areas use band 5, however it's not that common. I recently bought an unlocked smartphone with band 17 missing and I don't get AT&T LTE in Tampa, Florida. After purchase research confirmed this around large part of AT&T USA.

Most current at&t branded phones will have all the bands. And I recommend that you buy a phone with all of them, otherwise you're just cutting down on your service quality.
