Note 8 T-Mobile Oreo Slow Data Speeds

I came across this thread while searching Google. Someone with an S9 has the same exact problem so Adguard is aware but doesn't know a fix or cause yet.

If anyone else is having this same problem, turn off Adguard for now and install an app called Adclear. It works just as good as Adguard but there is no slow down like what's happening with Adguard right now. At least the developers know that since Adclear is working, it's possible they can fix Adguard to do the same.

I forget if you were the one that originally recommended AdGuard but lucky for me it's been working great. But doesn't mean that it can't crash on me someday from some update on AT&T so glad to know they are willing to work on issues ASAP.

I'll keep in mind the other app you recommended in case anything does happen in future.

From the forum link you gave it seems like it's specific to T-Mobile and Sprint?

Yes, I think I recommended Adguard. The slowdown is related to only T-Mobile and Sprint.

Like Adguard, you have to side load Advlear since these types of apps aren't allowed in the play store. It works exactly like Adguard but can also install a certificate to block ads that Adguard doesn't catch.

I will go back to Adguard once this issue is fixed.
