I'm having issues with LTE signal!

Are only AT&T users effected by the lack of LTE?

No, from reading the majority of the posts on the Google Help Forum it covers almost every carrier and multiple countries

Received my 6p on 1/20, fresh out of the box installed the 6.0.1 update and the January security patch. First day of use on AT&T, LTE was inconsistent and mostly stayed on 3G. After researching and reading through several threads I tried some of the solutions offered. My phone defaulted to Att nextgenphone apn settings during setup. Two changes worked for me, one was to remove the fota setting in apn types under the nextgenphone apn setting. The second was to use the att phone apn option. I've been using the att phone apn setting for several days now and have locked on to LTE consistently using that setting.

Interesting: When I received my new replacement 6P, I did not download the 6.0.1 security update. I did choose ATT Phone vs. the default ATT Nextgenphone but I did not change any of the APN settings.I do have fota in my APN settings and I am locked on ATT LTE without an issue.

Yes it's weird that with the nextgenphone apn setting removing fota allows for consistent LTE connection. But while using the att phone apn having fota in the apn type has no effect and LTE connects without issue. I have no explanation for why it is, I just know that's what worked for me.

As long as it works that's all that matters although I am happy to hear that the 6.0.1 security update is working and not causing signal problems for you

Man I hope that's not the case. I just bought the 6P brand new through Swappa and obviously no Nexus Protect. AT&T told me that in the event something is wrong, I can use my AT&T protection pack for a comparable phone, but I'm really looking forward to this phone. Now I'm worried.
