Wireless Network Keeping Up with Demand as Customer Problems Decrease, J.D. Power Finds

With the increase of 5G phones and network technology, wireless customers are experiencing fewer problems according to the J.D. Power 2024 U.S. Wireless Network Quality Performance StudySM—Volume 2, released today. The reduction of problems has led to improved consumer perception of reliability and increased network quality satisfaction.

“Despite a very public wireless service outage earlier this year, overall problems—especially loading speeds—have decreased,” said Carl Lepper, senior director of technology, media and telecom at J.D. Power. “A focus on mid-band spectrum for 5G by the industry has lowered latency through balancing speed and coverage, resulting in a better experience for mobile phone users.”
