Is the problem my old or t-mobile network?
Hello! I currently have an iPhone SE 2020 and use T-Mobile connect with 6 GB of data. I normally don't use all 6. Occasionally while driving or trying to use the internet, my internet stops complete...
Are you sure you are not over your 6GB of data? Although most plans just reduce the speeds after going over the data usage limit for the plan. The overage reduced speeds are so slow, it would make things like GPS completely useless. iPhone's require constant connectivity of data for iMessage to work.
Just in case you might be roaming on to a domestic roaming partner's network. Do you have roaming for data enabled to see if that solves your data connectivity issues? Domestic data roaming might be extremely limited on the partner network depending on your plan.

cellmapper.net will show where service is weak/where towers are - but isn’t 100% accurate (geotagged/crowdsource) in many areas.
Check your service at Kirkwood Community College / Iowa City Highschool.
I suspect that all carriers are colocated in the city (sharing towers in many places), and being primarily midband vs lowband, Verizon/AT&T will end up with stronger service.
Thank you!! I am on cell mapper. ¿Cuáles debería buscar? How can I tell how good the service is?
